(REBROADCAST) Episode 160 - Incorporating Unique Interests w/ Tameika Meadows

We were greatly saddened to learn of the passing of Tameika Meadows, a great BCBA, author of the I Love ABA blog, and advocate for the power of behavior analysis. Tameika was also one of our earliest supporters and it was a real treat when we finally had her join as our guest. In honor of her contributions to the field, we're rebroadcasting that episode and donating all CE fees raised for it from now until June 2023 to Black Applied Behavior Analysts (BABA). Tameika was scheduled to talk at the BABA conference as one of their invited speakers. While a donation is a poor substitute to her presence, we know what is raised will go to promoting behavior analysts in the Black community as a part of the legacy she leaves behind.

Though many of us have probably spent much of our careers fretting over how we can help autistic children stop engaging in stereotypic or seemingly ritualistic behavior, have we spent enough time asking whether attending to these unique interests might actually be beneficial? This week we're joined by Tameika Meadows from I Love ABA to flip the script on that old chestnut and see what research tells us about all of the benefits to appreciating a person's preferences, no matter how different they may be.

This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU. All funds for this episode from December 2022-June 2023 will be donated to BABA. Click here to go to the store page.
