🚨 URGENT: Medicaid ABA Services Are at Risk 🚨
On April 1, proposed Medicaid cuts could significantly reduce or eliminate ABA services for autistic children across New York. ❌🧩

These cuts would impact:
⚠️ Access to therapy
⚠️ Providers’ ability to serve families
⚠️ Children who rely on consistent, medically necessary care

ABA is not optional, it’s a critical service that supports communication, independence, and quality of life. Families, providers, and advocates are speaking out to stop these cuts before it’s too late.

🗣️ Your voice matters. Take action, learn more, and help protect essential services by reading and supporting the letter below ⬇️

💙🧠✊ Protect care. Protect families. Stop the April 1 Medicaid ABA cuts.

Bribery vs. reinforcement in ABA 🍪

Bribery is “you get the cookie first, then maybe you get in the car.” Reinforcement is “first we get in the car, then you earn the cookie.” In ABA, we teach that the behavior comes first and the reward follows, so kids learn clear, consistent cause-and-effect instead of working only when treats are dangled in front of them. 💛

Reinforcement matters. Just like adults appreciate being recognized for their hard work, kids learn best when their effort is acknowledged. Rewards help build confidence, motivation, and real-life skills. Reinforcement isn’t spoiling, it’s supporting growth. 🌱✨
