Getting ahead in child development.
WHAT WE DO
The Early Intervention Program provides services to children from birth to three years old. Early intervention Professionals specialize in child development
and can evaluate a child's physical, cognitive, communicative, social/emotional, and adaptive development.
If a child is determined to be eligible for Early Intervention services, VNASI will work with the early intervention designated officials, interventionists,
the service coordinator and the child's parents/guardians to develop a plan of services tailored to the family and child.
