Hey SABAS members!

Are you curious about:

1. 1. Enrolling in an exceptional graduate program that offers supervised fieldwork experience from one of the nation's best institutions, the Kennedy Krieger Institute.
2. Going to a graduate school that provides competitive financial compensation?
3. Joining a university community that prioritizes diversity, equity, and inclusion?

If so, UMBC may be the perfect graduate program for you!

The UMBC Applied Behavior Analysis program will be presenting a virtual open house on Tuesday, November 14th, from 6:30 - 7:30 p.m. UMBC Faculty will provide information about the requirements potential applicants need to apply for this program and the career opportunities associated with successful completion.

We hope to see you there!

Please read Javon Brown's request and consider joining him adopting a family.

My name is Javon Brown, and I am a senior at UMBC in the Social Work Program. As a social work student, I am currently doing my field placement at an elementary school in West Baltimore. With Christmas approaching it can be a difficult time for families to provide gifts to their children so I am reaching out in hopes you would like to participate in adopting a family for Christmas. This is a program started by a former social work student of UMBC and I would like to continue this program this year as well. What this means is, you or the organization you are a part of, would be donating gifts to families so the children will have presents during the holiday season. Along with gifts, if you are able to do so, gift cards can be donated as well to help out families with nutritional needs however the goal is to provide gifts for the kids first. Our overall goal is to provide gifts for 25-30 families. 

Attached is a google survey for you to fill out for yourself or on behalf of your organization so we can start the process of assigning families and getting gifts together. Please fill out the survey by November 5^th so we can assign everyone a family by November 24^th , just in time for black Friday shopping. All gifts must be given to me by December 10^th, a drop-off box will be located in the Social Work Office located at Sherman Hall-B, Room 322. I am also willing to arrange times to meet on campus if needed. The best way to reach me is through text, 443-490-5744 or through my UMBC email, Javonb1@umbc.edu.
