Summary
In Session 28 of The Behavioral Observations Podcast, Molly Ola Pinney joins me to talk about The Global Autism Project, an organization she started in 2003. In brief, The Global Autism Project trains teachers to work with children with Autism globally. The organization began this initiative in Africa, but has now branched out to helping people in this way to Central America, India, and beyond. In this episode, we talk about how the organization was founded, what it’s like to support teams remotely, and how exactly they carry out this mission today. Molly closes the interview by encouraging practitioners (or basically anyone listening to the show) to consider saying, “yes,” to new opportunities, even when they may be a little apprehensive about doing so. This episode is sponsored by Britton Behavioral Consulting. Dr. Lisa Britton, BCBA-D specializes in providing high quality independent fieldwork supervision to aspiring BCBA’s. For more information on her services, please check out her website here. Finally, if you are looking for BACB Type 2 Continuing Education, look no further (well, there are only 5.5 units available, so technically, you will have to look further, but you get the ideal…).

| 0:00.0 | This is the Behavioral Observations podcast with Matt Secoria, session number 28. |
| 0:11.8 | Welcome to the Behavioral Observations podcast, stimulating talk for today's behavior analysts. |
| 0:19.3 | Now here's your host, Matt Sequoria. |
| 0:24.0 | Hey, everybody. It's Matt. It's great to be back here in session 28 of the behavioral |
| 0:28.1 | observations podcast. I had just gotten back from Denver for ABAI. I think it was the 43rd one. |
| 0:40.9 | My gosh, not the 43rd one for me, certainly, but by the end of the weekend it certainly felt like it. And it was a really fun time out there. |
| 0:46.8 | I got to meet lots of guests that I've only known through Skype and certainly have made |
| 0:51.0 | some connections about future guests and things like that as well. |
| 0:55.5 | So all in all, a great time was had. |
| 0:58.0 | And I really also want to thank everyone for coming out and checking out our panel discussion on supervision. |
| 1:03.4 | It was kind of a packed room. |
| 1:05.7 | I was shocked. |
| 1:06.5 | You know, last year when I gave a or participated in a panel at the ABAI in Chicago, there was probably, |
| 1:13.6 | I don't know, a dozen people in the room, maybe 20 or something like that. |
| 1:18.0 | And it seemed like there was closer to 150 or 200 in this particular room. |
| 1:22.7 | And yeah, it was a little bit nerve-wracking. |
| 1:25.5 | I'm going to be honest with you, especially since I got |
| 1:27.7 | lost in the convention center and I'm showing up about a minute or two into the panel discussion |
| 1:33.0 | itself. So, yeah, that was a little bit embarrassing. But anyhow, I was able to diffuse those |
| 1:40.2 | private events and slog through it. So again, thanks for coming to it if you came and I had a chance to meet so many listeners |
| 1:49.2 | and I really appreciate everyone taking the time to come over and say hi. |
| 1:54.2 | Or those of you or send emails or Facebook messages and things like that, really appreciate |
