FranU continues monitoring upcoming weather conditions in the Baton Rouge region. The area will be under an enhanced risk for severe weather including wintery precipitation resulting in hazardous road conditions and power outages beginning Monday January 20.
As a result, FranU will implement remote operations on Tuesday, January 21.
We will continue to share updates as they become available. Please check your FranU email for more information.
FranU has been awarded a $50,000 grant from the Huey and Angelina Wilson Foundation to fund the start-up of a new certification program in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). This program is aimed at students interested in providing therapeutic support for patients with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) within community health and education settings. ABA coursework and practical experiences will prepare students for Board Certified Assistant Behavior Analyst (BCaBA) credentialing. The ABA curriculum may be taken as an elective option for FranU students majoring in psychology, providing an exceptional opportunity to enter the workforce immediately after graduation. This gift further substantiates the University's commitment towards responding to healthcare workforce needs of our state and our community, particularly for populations in greatest need.
