Description

Welcome to another episode of Don't IEP Alone podcast! In this episode, we will talk about BEHAVIOR!Lisa Lightner, host of the Don't IEP Alone Podcast, discusses the flaws and trends she's seeing with problematic FBAs. She argues that anyone can do an FBA, but not everyone has the necessary training to do so effectively.
