Despite a gathering consensus about the effectiveness of behavior analytic intervention for learners with autism, many school systems still struggle with the adoption, provision, and evaluation of behavior analytic programming. Furthermore, a history of exposure to poor consultation practices has resulted in frequent resistance to change agents not employed by local districts. In this presentation, Dr. Pennington will discuss contingencies at the individual and systems level that may serve as barriers to the adoption of behavior analytic practice and collaboration with consulting behavior analysts by local school systems. He will then describe his past work in capacity building through the Kentucky Autism Training Center and provide suggestions for navigating public school settings to provide consultation.
