Coalition Update

July 1, 2026

We are pleased to announce that the Association for Behavior Analysis International (ABAI) will be joining the ABA Coding Coalition effective July 1.

Julie Kornack (principal), Chief Government & Payor Relations Officer at Center for Autism and Related Disorders (CARD), and Dr. Maria Malott (alternate), Chief Executive Officer and Secretary/Treasurer of ABAI will be serving as the ABAI representatives to the Coalition. We are thrilled to have each of the national ABA membership organizations participating in the Coding Coalition, particularly given the upcoming release of the revised ABA code set, and look forward to the increased collaboration as we prepare the profession for this transition.

As we welcome ABAI to the ABA Coding Coalition, we would also like to express our appreciation and gratitude to Kelly Headrick and Autism Speaks (who are rotating off the Coalition in July) for their ongoing collaboration and support over the past several years.
