Who we are.
Our mission is to support Kansas families with infants or toddlers experiencing developmental delays or disabilities so every child can learn, grow, and achieve their fullest potential.
​We operate under the national Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA – Part C) to provide screening, evaluation, and early intervention services at no cost to Kansas children (birth to age 3) who experience developmental delays or disabilities.
Early intervention makes a
life-changing difference.
During the first three years of life, children’s brains undergo remarkable development, setting the stage for their future growth and potential. A child with a delay is not developing like other children of a similar age.
