This week, we are joined by Milena Suarez, a passionate advocate for the autistic community. Born in Bogotá, Colombia, Milena pursued psychology at the Universidad Católica de Colombia, working with victims of domestic violence before moving to the U.S. in 2020. She recently completed her master's in ABA and is now on her way to becoming a Board-Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA). Milena is driven by the potential of Applied Behavior Analysis to transform autism services in Colombia and beyond. Join us as we discuss her journey, vision, and the global impact she aims to make.

From Bogotá to the global stage, Milena’s journey from legal psychology to applied behavior analysis exemplifies our mission at ABS Kids. Her story sets the tone for the transformative narratives we’ll be sharing in the What’s Your WOW series.  

Read her blog all about her journey to Kenya here. 

We also would like to congratulate Milena on recently receiving her BCBA certification!
