The fellowship provides advanced clinical training in the assessment and treatment of severe and complex behavioral disorders in children and adolescents, with opportunities for applied research, program development, and professional mentorship.
The fellowship is modeled after specialized clinical training programs such as the Neurobehavioral Outpatient Program at Kennedy Krieger Institute and the Complex Behavior Program at Marcus Autism Center. Fellows will gain experience delivering intensive behavioral assessment and treatment services through YBC’s expanding clinic-based day treatment program, outpatient services, and school consultation partnerships across East Alabama.
