What is Early Intervention?

Early Intervention Services help infants and toddlers (with special health and developmental needs) to learn and grow. Medical research, along with the experiences of families, teachers and developmental specialists, indicates that family centered intervention during a child's first three years makes a significant difference in outcomes for the child and family. Early intervention services are planned and delivered through a partnership between families and professionals. Services are coordinated to meet the developmental needs of the child within the context of the family.
