Child and Family Connections empowers families to help their children learn and overcome challenges. The family, the service coordinator and therapy service providers work as a team. 

Together, we will: 

  • Talk about the challenges and concerns a family is having about their child
  • Choose the family's team to evaluate and provide services (if needed).  
  • Find out how the child is learning, moving, talking, eating, behaving, etc.
  • Determine if the child has a significant delay or diagnosis making him/her eligible
  • If eligible, hold a meeting to make an Individualized Family Service Plan (IFSP)
  • Come up with ideas to help the child and family learn new skills within their daily life.

Transition. At age 2 1/2 we begin the transition of children into other services. Children often go to Head Start, PreK, or Special Education Programs at their local school district. Child and Family Connections will work with your family and the appropriate programs to provide a smooth transition into the next services for your child.
