Overview
The Early Intervention Program provides coordinated services to children age birth to three and families with disabilities or delays. Early Intervention provides families with evidence-based strategies and coaching from a highly trained developmental specialist.
Since parents, family and caregivers are the first and most important teachers in a child’s life, they are actively involved in learning new techniques to assist their child. The staff, child, family and friends join forces and create a team.
