4 Parent Stories

Parent stories about their experience with the Essential for Living Curriculum (EFL).

Focusing on Quality of Life

In the early part of his career as a teacher and behavior analyst, McGreevy was drawn to practical applications for children and adults with moderate-to-severe disabilities, especially those with severe forms of self-injurious and aggressive behavior. He was particularly interested in functional skills that resulted in an improved quality of life. See a sample of this below.

Kristin

Later in his life, he married into a family with two children, one of whom, Kristin, had Down Syndrome. And from then on, until she passed way from a congenital heart condition, he experienced teaching and behavior analysis as a consumer, as well as a professional practitioner. Watch Dr. McGreevy recall Kristin below.

What People Are Saying

We asked parents what was making a difference...

"He wants to be able to be part of society, part of community... and it's just incredible because it makes his father and I feel confident that he is going to be able to have a productive life beyond us. I'm encouraged... and thank you, without this program we don't know where we would be."

Susan Callaghan
Parent
