The parents’ concerns and the needs of the child will determine which services are offered and lead to an Individualized Family Service Plan to address routine based goals. Primary services include: developmental intervention, social/emotional intervention, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech language pathology, sign language, and audiology services.
