2023 CASP Mission Award Recipients

Member Award

"Heather embodies all things CASP. She is relentless in her pursuit of collaboration, advocacy, and dissemination of quality ABA. She leads several SIGs, and she contributed to the CASP Practice Parameters for ABA delivered via Telehealth. She is kind, thoughtful, and a champion for CASP." 

Non-Member Award

"During the pandemic and beyond, Matthew Korn has been a source of calm and patient resources and general information. I never pass up an opportunity to hear him speak. Even before the pandemic, I attended talks he gave on employment law, and he really helped our organization up our compliance. I feel that CASP's mission is for all of us to get better at what we do, and Mr. Korn contributes to that in a substantial way."
