BCaBA
 

Strong request for BCaBA’s to be able to continue providing the level of service allowed under current guidance and that maintains the guidance for the skills/expertise of the BCaBA.  

Agencies do not have available BCBAs to take on the number of cases that would need to be dropped if BCaBAs were pulled from current caseload placement.

IF for some reason, the current stripping away of BCaBA allowances remain, I request that you allow for a period for those BCaBA’s currently on cases to complete training and requirements to move to BCBA certification. Youth, families, service providers all look to be able to maintain service provision for the intense level of service delivery for this population. 

Thank you for your consideration.
