Two Lanes. One Road. Navigating Scope of Practice for SLPs & ABA Practitioners
Presenters: Carly Dragan, SLPD, CCC-SLP, BCBA, Jean Jarrett, MS, CCC-SLP, MA, BCBA, and Tamara Kasper, MS, CCC-SLP, BCBA

Abstract: Ethical practice requires professionals to understand their scope, assess their competence, and collaborate responsibly—yet these skills are often the most challenging for students, newly credentialed clinicians, and even seasoned practitioners. This Mentoring Monday session uses the BACB Ethics Code and the ASHA Code of Ethics as a shared foundation for navigating scope of practice across disciplines.

Inspired by a real question from a newly minted BCBA, this presentation offers a practical, ethics-driven framework for determining professional boundaries, evaluating competence, and engaging in interprofessional collaboration that protects client welfare. Participants will learn how to identify discipline-specific responsibilities, apply ethical standards to real-world decision-making, and select collaboration strategies that honor both codes while strengthening shared clinical outcomes. This session supports clinicians at every stage of their career in building clarity, confidence, and ethical alignment across disciplines.

Honoring Martin Luther King Jr. Day

Today, Dower and Associates honors the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr.—a leader whose work reminds us that justice is not passive, and equity is not optional.

Dr. King challenged systems that excluded, marginalized, and silenced. His vision calls on all of us, especially those working with children and families, to examine our practices, our assumptions, and the environments we help create.

In speech-language pathology and behavior analysis, this means:

âś” Committing to evidence-based, ethical practice

âś” Ensuring access to communication for all individuals

âś” Actively working to reduce barriers rather than adapting people to unjust systems

As Dr. King reminded us, “The time is always right to do what is right.” Today, and every day, let's recommit to that work.
