From Vision to Impact: Our Journey

About POP-Therapies

Pursuit of Progress began with the shared vision of founders Becky Lam and Coral Ly, who, during their time at a multidisciplinary center, recognized the profound impact of early intervention on children with disabilities. With over 15 years of specialized experience, they were driven by values of empathy, consistency, transparency, and ethical practice to transform these insights into actionable outcomes. Their commitment to early detection and intensive interventions led to the establishment of Pursuit of Progress. 

The founders initiated community-level programs, providing free social skills groups and camps in Orange County. These programs educated families on the early signs of developmental delays and offered children a platform for enhancing social interaction, communication skills, self-confidence, and problem-solving in a fun and safe environment. The impact we made only grew our passion to help more families and share our love for ABA.

Pursuit of Progress envisions a world where both children on the spectrum and — 

— typically developing children can thrive together. By extending their strategies to all children, they aim to transform childcare practices, ensuring that every child continues to pursue progress and reach their full potential.

At Pursuit of Progress, we believe that a robust foundation, a supportive team, and clinically competent specialists are crucial for thriving individuals. Our mission extends beyond treatment to empowering our clients with the necessary skills and tools for a fulfilling life. Looking ahead, we are committed to expanding our impact, pioneering new methods, and nurturing a community where every individual can progress and succeed.

The fulfillment we gain from witnessing our clients achieve milestones, coupled with the positive feedback from their families, continually fuels our passion. It’s a reminder of why we started and what keeps us driven—ensuring everyone we touch through our work can have a seat at the table and a voice in their journey.
