Description: The Hardin County Early Intervention Program focuses on parent involvement with their children’s learning and development. Families receive a guide to the evaluation process during the first home visit. Children receive a complete evaluation upon referral for services including: vision, hearing, nutrition and social-emotional screenings, developmental evaluation, parent interview, parent/child interaction observation and hands on evaluation from a therapist. The team which includes parents, Service Coordinator, Developmental Specialists and therapists determines eligibility for Early Intervention services. Eligible children and families receive an IFSP to determine strengths, needs, outcomes and individual services. Per Early Intervention Rule the Bayley III assessment is used to determine eligibility for the program. The Assessment, Evaluation, and Programming System for Infants and Young Children (AEPS) is used as a curriculum and ongoing assessment tool. The Early Intervention staff strives to provide all services in the child’s natural environment by making home visits and encouraging parent involvement and participation in therapy sessions. Parents are given developmental questionnaires to help them monitor their child’s development. The final duty of the Early Intervention team is to help the child and family transition to preschool. Parents are given information to make decisions concerning the best preschool program for their child. We introduce parents to the preschool team in their school district and participate in all meetings and evaluations to make a smooth transition to preschool services.
