What is Early Intervention?
Early Intervention is an educational program for children aged birth to three who demonstrate delays or have disabilities. They enhance development during these early crucial years, based on a multidisciplinary approach that targets key domains, including communication, motor, and cognitive skills.
Why Early Intervention matters:
- Maximize potential: It fosters growth during the most formative period of brain development.
- Prevents escalation: Timely help can minimize problems before they become huge.
- Empowers families: Parents are equipped with the necessary tools and training to handle their child effectively.
Early intervention often requires coordination among therapists, educators, and physicians and provides a strong foundation for success later in life.
