Early Intervention Makes a Difference for Madelene

It’s such a joy when families share how Early Intervention (EI) supports enrich their lives and empower young children. As a Provider to the Ohio Statewide EI System, the focus of EI is to assist a family in meeting the unique needs of their child. Family-focused resources and supports are provided in naturally occurring learning environments, routinely at a child’s home.

Read below to hear from Megan, Madelene’s mom, about how EI and Speech Therapist Pallavi made a difference for their family…

“Early Intervention has been very beneficial for Madelene and our family. Madelene has been struggling with her expressive communication. Early intervention comes to our home to give us tips on how to encourage her communication. Using those tips, Madelene’s speech has really flourished.

Questions about her development outside of her speech can also be asked about in their team meetings. They also have play groups and programs you can participate in. Madelene’s favorite is the adaptive music and dance class. This is a great free program that our community offers!”
