Hope in the Dark: ECI Makes Progress Possible!
For many families, learning that their child has a developmental delay or disability can feel overwhelming, but through Early Childhood Intervention (ECI), hope and progress become possible. ESGH's Early Childhood Intervention Program provides personalized therapies for children from birth to three years old to help them reach developmental milestones and thrive. Read below two stories of families whose lives have been transformed through the care and dedication of their Easter Seals ECI teams.
"My son could not eat or walk before starting ECI. Thanks to his therapies with Thien and Jennifer, he is now eating and walking independently! I am very grateful to Easter Seals Greater Houston and our therapists for helping my son!"
-ECI Client Yoann's Mom, Early Childhood Intervention (ECI), Conroe Outreach, Easter Seals Greater Houston
"ECI was a game changer for our daughter’s development, not only was the program personalized for her specific needs but each therapist was extremely knowledgeable, caring, and helpful. This program gave us hope when we felt defeated and isolated. The techniques taught by these professionals were instrumental in meeting her milestones and in exceeding in other areas. We watched, listened, and implemented everything we were taught; doing our “homework” as a family was empowering and rewarding. Our girl graduated from ECI in April 2024 and we were sad to see our therapists leave but we will always hold a special place in our hearts for them."
