This "Raise Your Voice: Stories That Shape Us" series is a narrative-driven dialogue between two Asian-American BCBAs (Annie Chen and Christina Huynh) exploring the intersection of cultural identity and the BACB Ethics Code. The presenters will discuss how their upbringing shapes their clinical decision-making. Attendees will learn to identify cultural biases in standard ABA programming, redefine reinforcement through the "Language of Care," and apply cultural humility (Ethics Code 1.07) when navigating stigma and rapport-building with Asian families..
Attendees will learn how to:
Recognize how our own "cultural baggage" affects how we treat clients.
Understand why a "bowl of cut fruit" can be a more powerful reward than just saying "Good job!" (The Language of Care).
Build real trust with Asian families by respecting their traditions and helping them navigate the shame or stigma that sometimes comes with a diagnosis.
Describe strategies for adapting behavior analytic communication and programming when working with culturally diverse families, including translation of behavioral terminology and culturally responsive goal selection.
Explain how self-reflection on cultural identity, biases, and professional experiences can support ethical practice in accordance with the BACB Ethics Code.
