There are no one-size fits all interventions, and behavior analysts who overlook cultural differences imperil effectiveness (Bumstead & Boyce, 2005). The scientific exploration of Applied Behavior Analysis has the potential to enhance and impact problems of mass social validity, but this cannot happen effectively if we lack cultural humility and the understanding that everyone, culture, or sub-culture often responds differently to the same set of contingencies. Without seeking to understand an individual’s history of reinforcement and exposing ourselves to idiosyncratic cultural norms, we are inadvertently putting ourselves as practitioners in positions where we are not liked or trusted. This training will promote strategies on how to effectively interact with and provide interventions for families that we service by leading with understanding of who they are instead of leading with the science of ABA. This training will also include a storytelling method of teaching to help the learner gain insight on the caregiver’s perspective.
