Drum roll for our April Banana Duck recipient..... Sarah Rader, Regional Clinical Director! As a key member of North Arrow's Leadership Team, Sarah takes on many different roles, to ensure effective and efficient processes, policies, and services. Sarah leads by example in the most compassionate way. When asked to describe Sarah, our team offered these words- authentic, kind, supportive, empathetic, admirable, amazing human, realistic, funny, plus many more! One common trend from the team's input is Sarah's ability to draw out the greatness in others- said best here- "Sarah uses her skills to whittle fresh clinicians into experienced leaders, arm overwhelmed caregivers with knowledge, and transform anxiety-riddled humans into compassionate, talented technicians." Thankful for you, Sarah!✨🌲 Fun fact about Sarah- she is training for a full marathon! 🏆🤩 "Step one to running a marathon: You run. There is no step two." Stay tuned for our May Banana Duck recipient! 🍌 #NorthArrowABA #abatherapy #AppliedBehaviorAnalysis #BCBA #NorthernMI #NorthernMichigan #Autism #Community #effectiveness

Practitioners in the field of ABA take on a great deal of responsibility to ensure effective and meaningful treatment for their clients. The Behavior Analyst Certification Board is in charge of establishing, promoting, and disseminating professional standards within the field, including ethics standards. 👩‍🏫 Within ABA, the ethics code guides the work of our Behavior Analysts, ensuring that we treat our clients with dignity and respect, and that all decisions are made in the client's best interest. North Arrow takes this work to heart, having a dedicated Ethics Committee, consisting of Behavior Analysts across the organization- striving to be better Practitioners every single day! #Lifelonglearners ✨🌲 #NorthArrowABA

We've all heard the phrases "teamwork makes the dreamwork" and "it takes a village". How does collaboration actually help within an organization? 🧐 Picture ideas and experience flowing efficiently from one behavior analyst to another. That’s what collaboration in the organization can do- it can support the growing skillsets of our behavior analysts and RBTs alike, while also providing the most effective interventions to our clients. 🥰 When a team is motivated and working towards a common goal, such as providing high quality ABA therapy, they can accomplish more together than could one single person- it truly does take a village! Collaboration builds a community of life-long learners who, in turn, can produce better results for our families! Locally owned. Rooted in the northern Michigan community. ✨🌲 #NorthArrowABA

The power of collaboration, teamwork, and support 💪 A cohesive therapy team is essential for maximizing outcomes and creating socially significant change. Our behavior analysts work closely with our families, to ensure we are supporting across multiple environments, when able. Our team collaborates with Pediatricians, Teachers, SLPs, OTs, Care Managers, and Psychiatrists, to name a few. These connections ensure that we are on the same page and allow for data and progress to be shared among providers.

We are GLOWING over our Behavior Technicians✌️ A Registered Behavior Technician, or RBT, is a paraprofessional certified in behavior analysis through the Behavior Analyst Certification Board, or BACB. Throughout each session, RBTs provide one-on-one therapy, following the guidance and instruction from the Behavior Analyst. You may notice an RBT collecting data, either on paper, or on an iPad; this data is critical for the Behavior Analyst to track the client's progress and direct treatment decisions moving forward. A successful RBT must also be fluent in fun😆 Here at North Arrow, our Behavior Technicians are creative, kind, energetic, and community-minded- we are forever appreciative of their dedication and commitment to our families!
