EARLY INTERVENTION IS A DEVELOPMENTAL SERVICE AVAILABLE TO FAMILIES OF CHILDREN FROM BIRTH UP TO THE THIRD BIRTHDAY, FOR WHOM THERE ARE DEVELOPMENTAL CONCERNS DUE TO IDENTIFIED DISABILITIES, OR WHOSE TYPICAL DEVELOPMENT IS AT RISK DUE TO CERTAIN BIRTH OR ENVIRONMENTAL CIRCUMSTANCES. THE GOAL IS TO HELP CHILDREN LEARN THE BASIC AND BRAND-NEW SKILLS THAT TYPICALLY DEVELOP DURING THE FIRST THREE YEARS OF LIFE, SUCH AS: PHYSICAL (REACHING, ROLLING, CRAWLING, AND WALKING); COGNITIVE (THINKING, LEARNING, SOLVING PROBLEMS); COMMUNICATION (TALKING, LISTENING, AND UNDERSTANDING); SOCIAL/EMOTIONAL (PLAYING, FEELING SECURE AND HAPPY); AND SELF-HELP (EATING, DRESSING). WITH YOUR SUPPORT 236 CHILDREN MADE GAINS IN DEVELOPMENT TO BRING THEM CLOSER TO THEIR PEERS.
OUR 5 STARS STATE ACCREDITED EARLY CHILDHOOD PROGRAM SERVES 58 CHILDREN FROM 6 WEEKS THROUGH 5 YEARS. THIS FULLY-INCLUSIVE PROGRAM SERVES TYPICAL CHILDREN AND CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL NEEDS. THE CHILDREN RECEIVE QUALITY CARE CRITICAL FOR EARLY BRAIN DEVELOPMENT, BUILDING COGNITIVE, SOCIAL AND PHYSICAL SKILLS THAT WILL SERVE THEM FOR A LIFETIME. OUR CURRICULUM IS DESIGNED TO MEET THE DEVELOPMENTAL NEEDS OF CHILDREN. PLAY IS THE PRIMARY MEANS OF ENCOURAGING SKILL DEVELOPMENT. THE CHILDREN ARE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO ACTIVELY MANIPULATE MATERIALS AND THE PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT AND THUS GAIN NEW SKILLS BY PLAYING WITH EACH OTHER AND INTERACTING WITH ADULTS. EACH CHILD DEVELOPS OR LEARNS AT HIS/HER OWN RATE AND NEW SKILLS ARE ACQUIRED WHEN THAT CHILD IS DEVELOPMENTALLY READY.
