LIVE from the Thompson Center! It's ABA Inside Track! We're back again with a talk we gave last month at the 14th Annual Thompson Center for Autism Conference all about parent stress. But, a funny thing happened on the way to the podium: We realized that decreasing parent stress isn't as easy as just doing good training. Listen in for some tips on how to improve your parent-BCBA collaboration skills. And, as a big thank you to all of our listeners, this episode is good for one FREE CEU!!! After you listen to the whole thing, of course.
