Pros

APL offers a guaranteed 40 hours a week during the regular school year which you will not get at many other ABA organizations. The BCBAs are wonderful and there are many grad students working on becoming LABAs and BCBAs.

Cons

There is a strict “pay scale” yet pay is still inconsistent among employees (i.e. someone with only a high school degree makes more than employees with college degrees in the field). Huge turnover rate and lots of entry level employees with no experience in the field, which results in crappy “ABA”

Pros

Students are amazing, unique people! The new administration have made many much needed changes including quality HR representative, higher pay and better communication. Executive director is much more involved.

Cons

BTs are forced to differentiate most of the material for students. Teachers often insert their political opinions in classes instead of allowing students to form their own opinions. Students with more severe deficits were often ignored by teachers especially during pandemic online learning forcing BTs to become teachers (without a teacher's higher salary). Not many career advancement opportunities. Location is terrible- homeless people camping out on sport courts, close to busy streets, a building without proper sensory areas or staff rooms.

Hello and thank you for your review! APL is always looking to improve. We have opened up a second location for more room for students and staff with updated security measures. We aim to keep a 1:1 ration of student to staff to ensure all positions are able to complete their designated responsibilities. We will be looking to add more learning specialists year over year!

Pros

The children are wonderful. Many of the staff are wonderful as well. There are many employees there to cover the children’s needs. You can learn so much as a behavioral technician here if you have the right BCBA to help you.

Cons

I think there are some staff who need to keep their bad attitudes at home. You’re in a work place, and behaving in a certain manner is not appropriate or professional in front of kids who need to have positive role models.
