| Early intervention is available
to families having children with special needs. This program serves
children birth through two in their homes, using daily routines as
opportunities for growth. Parents and care-givers learn techniques from
specialists to assist their children in maximizing development. Case
managers help families in obtaining and coordinating children's
services, while teachers, social workers, or therapists provide
intervention to build skills and encourage learning.
Children with development delays, ages three through five, may receive home or center-based services. All preschool programs are fully inclusive; children with special needs play and learn along side their same-aged peers. Adaptations to the regular education curriculum allow these children the opportunity to participate to the fullest extent possible in activities enjoyed by preschoolers. When children are ready for kindergarten, agreements between Lincoln Uinta Child Development Association and local school districts promote a smooth transition while ensuring continuity of service delivery. |
