"SABA is the closest thing behavior analysis has to a foundation with a mission to support the growth and well-being of the field.  Of particular importance to me is SABA's support of students -- who are the future of behavior analysis. Having demonstrated its capacity to build a strong financial base and to develop and fund its outreach programs, SABA tops my list of organizations worthy of significant levels of financial support. "
