WHY EARLY INTERVENTION?

Early Intervention has a very positive impact on the child with developmental disabilities and their family. Early identification of a child and family’s strengths and concerns will ensure that planning and development can take place to support the child and family to reach their goals.

The primary focus of the Supported Child Development Program is with children and their families in the community childcare settings. We encourage and assist families to access available medical support, family support and service agencies. The desired outcome is that parents have a better understanding of how to best support their child’s development.
