What's New with ACQ

Autism Commission on Quality (ACQ) Launches New Website

The Autism Commission on Quality (ACQ) is a nonprofit, mission-driven, accreditation agency that recognizes applied behavior analysis organizations serving individuals and families impacted by autism. ACQ’s mission is to continuously improve the impact of applied behavior analysis servi

ces for the autism community through education and accreditation of provider organizations. Our vision is for all recipients of applied behavior analysis services to reach their full potential through access to organizations offering the highest level of care.

The Autism Commission on Quality (ACQ) has launched a new website, autismcommission.org. The website offers an array of updates related to ACQ’s new accreditation program for applied behavior analysis organizations serving people with autism.

When employees request leave for their own or a family member’s serious health condition or request an accommodation for a medical condition, employers are faced with a variety of overlapping federal, state, and sometimes local requirements.

Understanding the rules under the FMLA, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and any applicable state/local paid leave laws is critical to mitigating the risk of a legal claim. These highly technical statutes are not always easy to apply, and the circumstances surrounding leave requests can leave employers with more questions than answers.

To help better understand these issues, Fisher Phillips attorneys Matt Korn and Ben Dudek will present a webinar for CASP to discuss these legal requirements and answer questions regarding leave and accommodation requests.

There are no CEUs offered with this webinar.
