Frequently Asked Questions

How do I access early intervention services?

Is there a waitlist for early intervention?
Federal law requires evaluation within 45 days of referral and services to begin promptly. However, some areas have provider shortages.
What happens when my child turns 3?
Children transition from early intervention to school district preschool special education. Transition planning should begin at age 2.5.
