Early Intervention (EI) - Serves children 0-3 who have a developmental delay or a medical diagnosis likely to result in delay. The EI team consists of a service coordinator, a developmental specialist, and occupational, physical and speech therapists. The team also has an Early Childhood Mental Health provider, a hearing specialist, and of course the family. All team members work together to help reach outcomes the family desire. Early Intervention supports learning and development, child social and emotional well-being, and helps families through a coaching model within the context of daily routines and activities. Services for pre-school aged children - The Perry County Board of DD provides services to children 3-6 through the support of an early childhood specialist. These services are primarily home based and often times supplement the work of preschool special education, or may stand alone for those children not enrolled in preschool. Through discovery with families, the specialist learns of the unique strengths and needs of the child, and helps the family build on those strengths or provides resources for assessed needs. Services for school-aged children - The Perry County Board of DD provides service coordination to families enrolled with school-aged children. The role of the service coordinator is to help connect families with needed resources and supports as requested. The service coordinator is available to attend IEP meetings with families, make application for family selected supports, and serves as a resource for families as they navigate various systems for services for their children.
