Aloha HABA Members!Thank you to everyone who attended our recent CEU event!

We were thrilled to host so many of you at our live online session on Saturday, June 28th from 10:00 – 11:30 AM HST via BehaviorLive. Your presence and engagement made the event a meaningful experience. This session offered 2 CEUs and was filled with powerful insights for behavior analysts.

Title: Prosocial in the Workplace: Building Better Groups Through the Science of Cooperation

As behavior analysts, we often navigate complex group dynamics across clients, teams, and organizations. This presentation introduced Prosocial, a science-based framework that integrates contextual behavioral science, evolutionary theory, and Elinor Ostrom’s Core Design Principles to support cooperation, improve team performance, and drive meaningful change at every level.

Through real-world case examples, interactive exercises, and evidence-based tools, participants walked away with practical strategies to foster effective teams, promote sustainable behavior change, and boost collective well-being.
