The Child Development Programs are Early Intervention Programs serving children with special needs or who are at risk for delays, 0-3 years old. Our programs offer a global approach to building skills in all areas of development. A multidiciplinary team of professionals work with the children and families to build skills in socialization, fine & gross motor, speech & language, cognition, sensory organization and self help skills. Each child is evaluated upon entering the program in order to determine their skill level and establish objectives to meet over a 6-month period of time. Early evening Parent Education Meetings and Support Groups are offered regularly.
