What is Early Childhood Intervention?

Sometimes babies are born with a condition or special need that affects their development. Other times a condition is not apparent at birth, but over time parents and doctors begin to wonder if the child is developing appropriately.
Early Childhood Intervention means finding specific ways to help a child become as functional as possible.

In some situations, the therapy a child receives at an early age enables that child to reach developmental milestones on target or close to target. In other words, early intervention can sometimes help a child "catch up" to peers. 

There is support and education for the family as well.
