By Using a combination of services, sc early intervention helps infants and toddlers with developmental delays and special needs learn to achieve their milestones. It may also help them transition to school-based services at a young age. It is a program that helps kids and families reach their full potential.
What are strategies for early intervention?
There are several types of EI services, including: individualized family training (IFT), Special Instruction (SI), Service Coordination, and physical therapy. Using a combination of these services, families can learn how to support their children’s development.
The individual family service plan (IFSP) is a document describing your child’s development and the services that are provided to support it. It may list goals for your child, the frequency of training sessions, and other services that will help your child achieve them.
The IFT is a legally enforceable document, and it carries the weight of the state’s legal responsibility to ensure your child receives the services he or she needs. A Service Coordinator will work with you to determine what your child needs.
The best IFT is the one that incorporates your child’s strengths, interests, and needs. It can also help you identify resources in your community that can help you meet your child’s goals.
The Individualized Family Service Plan outlines the most effective methods to help your child reach his or her goals. It is also an important tool for determining your child’s eligibility for EI services. You may also be referred to the BabyNet program. The BabyNet program is a free screening tool that is a great way to identify your child’s developmental delays. You can also call the office of Special Education Services to learn more about your child’s public education options.
