Dear NJABA Members,

As we transition from the leisurely pace of summer into the vibrant start of fall, I hope this message finds you reinvigorated and ready to embrace the opportunities and challenges ahead. The beginning of a new academic/school year is always a time of excitement and potential. NJABA looks forward to enhancing our community’s engagement and support for each of you.

We are pleased to announce the resumption of our workgroup meetings. These gatherings are a core part of our mission to foster collaboration and shared learning within our community. Each group offers a unique space to delve into specialized areas, allowing deeper connections and insights. Stay tuned for the schedule of meetings, and join us in these enriching discussions.

Furthermore, we are in the planning stages of a potential student reception. Once finalized, this event will be a fantastic opportunity for our students to network, share their experiences, and gain further insights into the field of behavior analysis. We look forward to providing more details soon.

We eagerly anticipate your submissions for our 20th Annual Conference, scheduled for Friday, April 11, 2025, with a pre-conference workshop and reception on Thursday, April 10, 2025. We are excited to see the innovative research and practical applications you have all been working on, and we encourage you to submit your work and share your insights with the broader community.

As we move forward into the fall, let’s continue to support one another and build on the dynamic and supportive environment that makes NJABA a cornerstone for professional growth and advocacy in behavior analysis. Here’s to a productive and fulfilling season ahead!

President, NJABA
