What We Do

Early Intervention with the K.I.D.S. Program is a support and service program designed to help families with children who have developmental delays or a disability or diagnosis that places them at high risk for having a developmental delay.
The goal of the program is to improve a child’s development and to increase involvement in family and community life. By partnering with families, Early Intervention provides families with the tools and support they need to best help their child be successful. This approach focuses on the whole child and family rather than a specific area of development because development in children does not occur segmentally.

The K.I.D.S. Program empowers parents as their child’s first and best teacher.

Participation in Early Intervention is voluntary. The program is built on the following beliefs:

Families are their child’s first and best teacher.
Information and emotional support help families care for their children.
Services and supports are designed around and promote family strengths.
Services and supports occur in the context of the child and family’s day-to-day activities.
Service and supports are individualized in the child’s Individual Family Service Plan (IFSP).

Quotes from Families:

“This program have been a lifesaver for us! So happy that we were a part of it.“

“Our child has overcome so much and continues to progress. The information and direction given to me as a parent has been so helpful.”

“Although it is humbling to reach out and ask for help, I have learned so much about my son’s unique needs. He is improving every day!”
