During the Aug. 15 meeting the Behavior Analyst Advisory Committee discussed applicants for one remaining advisory committee seat. Committee members discussed geographic distribution and the value of adding another master’s‑level clinician to balance a membership that includes many Ph.D.‑level members.

Committee members voiced preference for Holly Kramer, who practices in more rural areas of Kansas, in part to improve geographic representation. Several members noted that Danielle is also a strong candidate with Wichita‑area experience and should be the committee’s alternate if Holly declines.

Chair Linda Heitzman Powell asked staff to confirm continued interest and, if Holly accepts, to forward her name to the BSRB chair for appointment. Executive Director David Fye confirmed he would contact Holly first and then Danielle if Holly declines.

Why it matters: advisory committees advise the board on profession‑specific issues; the committee sought balance of geographic representation and clinical experience when recommending the appointment.
