  • Supporting the design and application of evidence based practices to improve the quality of life of the citizens of Oregon.
  • Serving as a professional reference group for those who identify themselves as scientists or practitioners in disciplines that embrace the principles and practices of behavior analysis.
  • Advising political, legislative, and policy-making bodies with respect to all matters pertaining to behavior analysis.
  • Promote the Behavior Analyst Certification Board®, Inc. as the appropriate body for credentialing practitioners of Applied Behavior Analysis in the state of Oregon.
