Early Intervention Home
Early Intervention is a service provided in the home to assist parents of children age, birth to three, who have been identified as having developmental delays. The goal of Early Intervention is to show parents how to work with their child through play activities to achieve developmental milestones.
The Early Intervention team is made up of physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech therapists and special education teachers. The professionals working in Early Intervention have the training, skills and resources to make a difference in the lives of children and families they serve. The goals, strategies and activities provided for a child are contained in an Individualized Family Service Plan (IFSP). The IFSP provides an outline of the goals to be achieved and the services to be provided. Every member of the team has a copy of the IFSP, and it is reviewed on a regular basis. It is the belief of the Early Intervention staff that the child's first teacher and most important teacher is the child's parent(s). The aim of Early Intervention is to provide parents with the skills and understandings needed so they can help their child achieve his or her fullest potential.
