    What families are saying about Ann McCarthy:

    "Ann has been an essential asset in helping us navigate the complex and sometimes daunting school system.  She has assisted us in taking an active role in our child's education. We are truly grateful." 

    --Parent from Greenwich, CT

    “Working with Ann McCarthy helped me truly understand the PPT and IEP process as well as review the needs of my child and the options of services available to meet those needs within the public school parameters.”

    --Parent from Wilton, CT

    “When my three year old son entered our town’s public preschool for kids with special needs, I was hoping he would get the right services and he would improve. After a year, he was still behind his same-aged peers. I was very concerned and did not know where to get help. Finally, Ann McCarthy stepped in. She helped me at my PPT meetings, worked on new goals and objectives for the upcoming school year, and was able to get the school to do a comprehensive evaluation of my son (which I had tried to do myself unsuccessfully).”

    --Parent from Fairfield County, CT
