" Someone listened to me and gave me support.

My kids and I are much better now"



Early Intervention
 




Sometimes young children need extra

help because of premature birth, health

problems, or a concern about their

progress in seeing, hearing, talking,

thinking, playing, or moving.



Help Me Grow:
• provides a developmental evaluation at no cost to you to determine if your child is eligible for ongoing Early Intervention Services
• helps you select an ongoing Early Intervention service provider and Service Coordinator for your family
• links you to community resources and family support groups and activities

"Early Intervention makes such a difference!

I learned about resources that are available to us that I never would have known about before. Involvement in these types of services early on can make a difference in your child's life."
