🌟 To the Strong Parent Facing Challenging Behaviors 🌟

We see you. 💛

The meltdowns, the tough mornings, the silent prayers, the endless research, the moments where you question if you're doing enough — they’re all part of your incredible journey.

Just remember:

➡️ Challenging behavior is not bad behavior. It's communication — sometimes loud, messy, and hard to understand, but it's your child's way of saying, "Help me, guide me, understand me."

➡️ You are not alone. There is a whole village of parents, therapists, and professionals walking this path beside you. We’re here, cheering for your small wins and helping you through the setbacks.

➡️ You are doing an amazing job. Progress takes time. Celebrate every step — no matter how small — because each one is a victory.

Your child is not defined by their struggles. And neither are you. 💪

Keep showing up.
Keep advocating.
Keep loving fiercely.

💙 You’ve got this.

📢 Big News for RBTs!

New BACB Requirements Coming in 2026

🚨 Starting January 1, 2026, the BACB is rolling out changes to the RBT certification process. Here’s what you need to know:

🔑 Key Changes

✔️ 40-Hour Training – Must follow the new 2026 RBT Training Curriculum & include updated wording on certificates.
✔️ Trainers/Assessors – Must be active BCBAs/BCaBAs with 8-hour supervision training. Assistant assessors must hold RBT or higher.
✔️ Recertification Cycle – Moving from 1 year ➝ 2 years.
✔️ Competency Assessment – No more annual assessment! Instead, RBTs need 12 hours of professional development every 2 years.
✔️ Professional Development Options – In-service training, ACE provider CEUs, or university coursework in ABA.

📅 What This Means for You

Make sure your training is aligned with the 2026 curriculum.

Check that your supervisor/trainer is qualified under the new rules.

Plan ahead to complete your 12 PD hours each 2-year cycle.

Keep documentation of PD for smooth recertification.

💡 Pro Tip

Stay proactive—start preparing now so you’re ready when the new rules go live!

🧠💚 Although today marks the last day of Mental Health Awareness Month, the conversation doesn't end here.

Let’s carry the awareness, compassion, and commitment to mental well-being into every month of the year. Mental health is just as important as physical health—and it deserves ongoing attention, support, and understanding.

✅ Check in with yourself.
✅ Check in with others.
✅ Make space for rest, reflection, and recovery.
✅ Normalize asking for help.

Together, let’s keep breaking the stigma and continue making mental health a priority—for ourselves, for our loved ones, and for our communities.
