This past year, we’ve witnessed an extraordinary growth in our membership numbers, reflecting the magnetic appeal of our mission to professionals and students eager to join our cause in nurturing a diverse and inclusive behavior analysis community.

We have bold aspirations for 2024–2025, including:
Membership Expansion: We will intensify our recruitment efforts to attract an even wider audience. Our ambition is to cultivate a multifaceted community where every member can both contribute to and reap the benefits from our collective wisdom and fervor for behavior analysis.

Research Project Support: Central to our agenda is the endorsement of research endeavors that resonate with our mission. We are committed to supplying resources, offering mentorship, and providing platforms for researchers passionate about investigating the interplay between diversity and cultural factors in the advancement of behavior analysis and the enhancement of outcomes for diverse groups.

The potential of these initiatives to profoundly elevate our profession and positively affect the communities we serve fills us with vitality. We extend an open invitation to all members of the behavior analysis community to partake in these pursuits. United, we endeavor to carve out a future that is more inclusive, diverse, and impactful.
