Applied behavioral analysis therapy services.

Summary

The bill would obligate public (including charter) schools to consult with and permit licensed or board‑certified behavior analysts and certified registered behavior technicians to deliver applied behavioral analysis (ABA) therapy to a student who, per a parent or the student, has ABA services included in their IEP or 504 plan. Schools would not have to hire or pay these providers, but must conduct background checks and follow safety rules. The measure also grants schools immunity from civil suits for good‑faith compliance and directs the Department of Education to issue implementation guidance.
