Services

Some children will need specialized services to reach their potential

To be eligible for services in Vermont, a child must have a delay in one or more fundamental skill areas, or have a medical condition that may interfere with learning and future success at home, in school, and in the community. Fundamental areas include communication, motor, self-care and adaptive, social-emotional, and cognitive skills.

Services we provide at no cost to families
