Kansas BSRB praised for user-friendly website redesign by ASPPB

The Kansas Behavioral Sciences Regulatory Board (BSRB) made headlines during its Behavior Analyst Advisory Committee meeting on August 15, 2025, with a significant focus on the agency's newly revamped website. The meeting highlighted the positive feedback received from the Association of State and Provincial Psychology Boards (ASPPB), which praised the Kansas BSRB website for its user-friendly design and accessibility.

Executive Director David Lisonbee reported that the transition to the new website, hosted by Granicus, aimed to enhance user experience by simplifying navigation and improving mobile accessibility. The redesign was part of a broader effort to ensure that users can easily find the information they need. Lisonbee noted, "We wanted to make the website a bit more user-friendly," emphasizing the importance of adapting to the increasing use of mobile devices for internet access.

The ASPPB recognized the Kansas BSRB website as one of the top ten agency websites across the United States and Canada, commending its organization and the inclusion of frequently asked questions. This acknowledgment reflects the hard work of the staff involved in the website's development and aligns with the BSRB's goal of providing clear and accessible information to the public.

In addition to the website discussion, the committee approved the minutes from their previous meeting, ensuring continuity in their operations. The meeting also welcomed new advisory committee member Lisonbee Bell, who runs an outpatient ABA clinic in Wichita and is actively involved in advocacy for behavioral health services in Kansas.

The positive reception of the Kansas BSRB website marks a significant achievement for the agency, reinforcing its commitment to transparency and accessibility in behavioral health services. As the BSRB continues to evolve, stakeholders can anticipate further improvements aimed at enhancing public engagement and support for behavioral health professionals in the state.
