“When we brought our 9 year old autistic daughter to Chileda, we really had nowhere else to go.  She had severe behaviors that many thought couldn’t be treated.  But not the staff at Chileda!  They welcomed her with open arms when no one else would or could.  Their knowledge, behavior focused methodology, patience and caring attitude brought out the best in our daughter and we couldn’t have been happier with the results.  She has successfully transitioned back into her regular program and is now thriving beyond what we all thought was imaginable.  The centralized focus on addressing and correcting the negative behaviors while rewarding and reinforcing the positive behaviors was the real key to her success.  Thank you to all the loving and wonderful Chileda staff that shared in her path to success.”
