ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS: Call to schedule a screening to determine eligibility. Must meet one of the following three criteria: Medically Diagnosed Condition, Auditory or Visual Impairment, or Developmental Delay.
The evaluations used to determine eligibility include the Battelle Developmental Inventory 3 (BDI-3) and Developmental Assessment of Young Children 2 (DAYC-2). The BDI-2 is used for Spanish-speaking families at this time.
If your child qualifies for services, the team identifies your family's daily routines and your child's strengths and needs.
Based on the results of the evaluation and assessment, your team develops a plan for services, also known as the Individualized Family Service Plan (IFSP). Under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), evaluations, assessments and IFSPs are provided at no cost to parents.

COST TO CLIENT: Families that qualify for Medicaid have no cost for service.
All other families have a cost share determined using a sliding fee scale based on family size and net income after allowable deductions.
