Description

This conversation explores the development of the first graduate-level Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) program at a Historically Black College and University (HBCU), Florida A&M University. The discussion highlights the importance of HBCUs in addressing the educational needs of African-American students, the collaborative efforts of faculty and community members, and the program's commitment to inclusivity and cultural perspectives in behaviour analysis. The team emphasizes the significance of practicum partnerships, research opportunities, and support for international students, aiming to create a diverse and accessible ABA program that meets the needs of underrepresented communities.
