Sheila Lewis Ealey is the founder and former director of the Creative Learning Center of Louisiana, where she served for ten years. It was a small therapeutic day school for severely affected children on the autism spectrum and children diagnosed with other nonverbal intellectual disabilities beginning at age 8. She is the wife of a former U.S. Coast Guard Officer, who spent more than 16 years of his 26 years of service traveling worldwide, supporting his love and duty to our country. She is also the mother of four children — three daughters, and her son, Temple — diagnosed with severe autism spectrum disorder at 18 months, and has a granddaughter. Temple is now a young man and considered moderate and emerging. Her formal education includes a bachelor’s degree in mass communication from St. Mary’s Dominican College, an MA in curriculum and instruction in special education grades K through 12 from Concordia University and a doctorate in educational leadership in special education grades K through 12 from Gwynedd Mercy University. She is certified as a DIR Stanley Greenspan Floortime practitioner, in Interactive Metronome and as a Fast Forward reading interventionist. Sheila and her boy and girl twins, Temple and Lucinda, were featured in the documentary “Vaxxed.” She has traveled extensively, advocating for medical freedom as a Constitutionalist and inspirational speaker. She continues to educate disenfranchised parents about their fundamental rights to religious and philosophical exemptions, their ability to live sustainably off a limited budget and the importance of nutritional foods and biomedical interventions for optimum health after a diagnosis of autism or other learning disabilities such as ADD or ADHD. She also writes individual curriculums for parents of children with autism or intellectual disorders who choose to homeschool and is a trustee for the Autism Trust, USA.
