Specifically of Interest to Behavior Analysts
The Northland covers a wide geographic region where many behavior analysts practice with limited contact with their colleagues in the field. A primary focus for our chapter is developing and maintaining a network of contacts for behavior analysts in the region, providing accessible continuing education, and building relationships between behavior analysts and the constituent organizations we serve.
