Behavior Analyst regs are working well
 

As a board certified behavior analyst and licensed behavior analyst in Virginia, I feel the behavior analyst licensure regulations that have been in place are working well. It has been my experience that families in need of services have been able to receive them from well qualified professionals throughout the state. The field of behavior analysis is incredibly specialized, and requires delivery from clinicians who possess the high quality training and experience required within the current regulations. 

Please maintain the regulations as they have been in place.
