This workshop is designed to equip behavior analysts with structured, developmentally sensitive strategies for cultivating authentic consent skills throughout the lifespan. Teaching Consent in ABA is a fundamental component of this training, and participants will learn to identify critical consent behaviors, create learner‑tailored consent exchanges from early education through adulthood, and impart both social and safety skills fundamental to giving and receiving an embodied "yes." Instructional methods are grounded in behavior-analytic frameworks and enriched by empirical findings on functional-contextual consent teaching. The Teaching Consent in ABA curriculum also critically addresses ethical limitations and potential risks inherent in consent programming. (Behavior Analyst CE, 2025)
