AuSM Presentation

The raw text of my presentation for the Autism Society of Minnesota state convention, Surviving the College Years, is now online at:

I sincerely believe ABA must be revised, researched, and ideally all connections to anything Lovaas did forgotten to history. I'd even like to see whatever evolution occurs to have a name other than "ABA-based therapy." The history and associations are that troubling. So, understand I'm ca...
