 nt of an autistic child. To date\, her research has focused on the present
 ation of social impairment for autistic youth in inclusive school settings
 \; identification of best practices for autistic youth\; and understanding
  successful implementation and sustainment of evidence-based practices for
  autistic youth in public school settings. Locke has expertise in implemen
 tation science\, user-centered design and working in collaboration with pu
 blicly funded school systems. Most recently\, her research has focused on 
 identifying and examining malleable individual and organizational characte
 ristics that increase teachers’ and para-educators’ use of evidence-ba

 tem. Locke’s experiences highlight the importance of collaborating with 
 public schools and the reality of working within the constraints of public
 ly funded systems.
