“You guys do awesome. The guys look forward to going.” – (Group home administrator)

 

“He’s doing so much better.  You guys know how to work with them

and get them to open up when we can’t.  You help him learn to control himself. 

I didn’t think he could calm himself this way.”

– (Group home staff)

 

“Keep doing what you guys do cause he is doing well.  He doesn’t have fits or episodes of anger and aggression; no throwing objects and flipping out on staff.  He’s been doing better with regard to following rules in the house and is getting along with everyone overall. 

He really likes the program.” – (Group home staff)
