How do neurodivergent youth experience schools, juvenile justice systems, and the adults responsible for supporting them? In this episode, Ben Reiman is joined by Dr. Larome Myrick, Executive Director of Youth Justice for the State of Rhode Island, and Anthony Bronaugh Sr., BCBA, educator, and former school principal. Drawing on decades of experience in corrections, education, and behaviour analysis, they explore how neurodivergent youth have historically been misunderstood, mislabeled, and underserved. The conversation examines the intersection of behaviour analysis, trauma-informed care, juvenile justice, and education while highlighting practical ways systems can move beyond punishment-based approaches. Larome and Anthony discuss the realities of correctional classrooms, the importance of early identification and support, how stigma continues to impact families and communities, and why collaboration across systems is essential. They also share their vision for creating environments where neurodivergent youth are understood, supported, and given opportunities to thrive. Whether you're a behaviour analyst, educator, school administrator, social worker, policymaker, or parent, this episode offers valuable insights into building more responsive and humane systems for young people.Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/bOxkDthDgFgContinuing Education Credits (https://www.cbiconsultants.com/shop)BACB: 1.5 LearningIBAO:  1.5 ABA TopicsQABA: 1.5 GeneralCBA/CPD: 1.5 Learning  Follow us!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/behaviourspeak/LinkedIn:  https://www.linkedin.com/in/behaviourspeak/TikTok:  https://www.tiktok.com/@behaviorspeak Contact Dr. Larome Myrickhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/laromemyrick/Contact Anthony Bronaugh, Sr.https://www.linkedin.com/in/anthony-bronaugh-sr-m-ed-bcba-coba-747139211/
