Holding the ABA Field to a Standard of Excellence | Interview With Sara Litvak and Anna Bullard from the BHCOE #49

This week I am excited to welcome the CEO of the Behavioral Health Center of Excellence to the podcast, Sarah Litvak, and welcome back her colleague, and VP of Government Relations Anna Boulard! Download the podcast today to learn about the incredible ways the BHCOE is advancing the field of ABA from both the parent and the provider perspective.

Sarah Litvak is a behavior analyst based out of southern California. She, along with her team creates measurement tools and provides metrics to assess ABA provider quality. Sara assists ABA providers in optimizing their services and helps families identify quality ABA providers across the United States. 

Anna Bullard joined us all the way back on podcast #18 where she talked to us about the importance of being a parent advocate and the incredible impact you can have if you speak up and use your voice. Anna has over a decade of experience in developing policy and advocating at the state and federal levels. Additionally, she has developed payor relations to increase access to quality care while developing capacity for growth. Her knowledge as a parent who has experienced the struggles of getting the services her child needed has allowed her to develop a streamlined approach for families to access care in a timely manner.
