The first meeting of the Agency for Health Care Administration’s ABA Task Force was a productive discussion that underscored both the critical role behavior analysis services play for Florida families and the importance of protecting the integrity of the Medicaid program.

FABA President, Dr. Yanerys León, and FABA Past President, Dr. Kerri Peters, are both members of this newly formed task force, bringing years of clinical and leadership experience to these critical discussions about strengthening access to quality behavior services for thousands of Florida children. FABA Executive Director, Dr. Missy Olive, also provided public testimony at the meeting, advocating on behalf of our members and the families we collectively serve.

FABA will continue to participate in all Task Force meetings, and we're committed to keeping our members informed as this important work progresses. Together, we can help shape solutions that promote early intervention, high-quality individualized care, and the best possible outcomes for Florida's children.
