Episode Summary
This week, I’m gonna interview Dr. Matt McNiff. Matt and I have been friends for a number of years, and he was definitely high on the list of dads that I wanted to interview when I thought about this podcast. Dr. McNiff has been a member of the educational service unit five in Nebraska since 2000.
From 2006 and 2016, he’s been the behavior consultant for ESU five and in 2016, he became the director of special education. As the director of special education. Matt works with ESU 5 schools to assist in supervising and developing special education programs for children with disabilities from ages birth through 21. He definitely has an interest in the field of behavior disorders, autism, and really children with profound disorders. Matt will tell you about his family, but Matt’s really got kind of a unique thing going on. And I really just want us to dive in to the first part of this interview, where we talk about Matt’s son Jackson who’s a senior this year and Matt’s son Ben who’s been diagnosed with autism who started his freshman year.
