Early Intervention/Early On®
Children birth to 3 years-old with developmental delays are typically serviced in their home or a natural environment such as a park. Your Service Coordinator will help you think about the changes you would like to see for your child. Services and supports are coordinated through an Individual Family Service Plan (IFSP). An IFSP is your family's plan of action.
