Connecticut had 78 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, representing 1% of the national weekly total. The file reports 36 new this week and 46 new this year, with 55 individuals and 23 organizations. That share signals a small slice of national registry activity, not a direct measure of the state’s workforce or service capacity; NPI records do not confirm hiring, caseloads or appointment availability.
ABA Workforce Mix
The credential summary lists 6 BCBAs and 11 RBTs, with no dual BCBA-RBT credentials. The RBT-to-BCBA ratio is not a direct measure of supervision capacity, but it points to a relatively small listed BCBA pool alongside more technician credentials. Because BCBAs supervise RBTs, adding technicians without corresponding clinical supervisors can constrain service expansion. The data also has a field discrepancy: credentialText lists 3 BCBAs, rather than the summary’s 6. These counts should not be treated as a complete workforce census. Thirteen providers have multiple taxonomies, so classifications can overlap rather than represent separate people or mutually exclusive groups.
Demographics and Organizations
Women account for 50 providers, or 91%; men account for 5, or 9%, and the file reports no nonbinary providers. The notable-organizations field is empty, and no organization appears multiple times in that list. The provider records include Steady Path ABA LLC and Gracious Growth CT LLC, each listed once. New Haven, West Hartford and East Hartford are among the leading cities named in the update, alongside Greenwich and Middletown.
Connecticut’s registry activity shows RBT credentials outnumbering BCBA credentials, suggesting that expanding ABA access may depend on growing the state’s supervisory workforce as well as its technician pool.
