This important publication presents a compelling call to action for behavior analysts to embrace neurodiversity-affirming practices that prioritize dignity, autonomy, and meaningful client outcomes. Drawing from the lived experiences of Autistic and Neurodivergent individuals, as well as critiques of traditional ABA practices, the authors advocate for a paradigm shift in how ABA is conceptualized and delivered.
