We need your help!
The Michigan Behavior Analysis Providers Association (MiBAP) is working with state legislators to pass a bill, HB5044, that would allow students with disabilities to access medically necessary treatment, including Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), during the school day when prescribed by a licensed health care specialist. The bill does not aim to replace teachers, paraprofessionals, or special education services. Rather, it would allow ABA providers to support, supplement, and collaborate with school teams.
One of the best ways to show support for this bill is to write your State Representative using the template below.
