FB groups have become the primary way ABA is discussed in a serious and professional manner. Questions can be asked and answered, with many people providing their own personal insights and expertise.
Below is a list of ABA Groups I would recommend to both professionals and students. Some groups allow parents and caregivers, and some are private. Please feel free to leave your own recommendations in the comments section.
