As well as a full day of great presentations and keynotes, the ABA Support Network is presenting a seminar:

ABA in BC Schools and Parent Advocacy
(11:15am on Saturday at the BC-ABA Conference)

Presenters: Nancy Walton, Dione Costanzo, & Jodie Wickens, ABA Support Network

Description: It is important for parents, BI's, consultants and paraprofessionals to understand the role parents play in improving ABA services in BC. This mini seminar will include a brief history of ABA funding in BC, access to ABA in the classroom and how parents were able to advocate for change. Then presenters will provide a blue print for how parents can advocate for their own child over individual issues. Lastly, we will discuss the importance of paying it forward so that a stronger ABA community can make it easier for families to advocate for their children.
