What is Early Intervention?
Early Intervention (E.I.) is an Illinois government-run program that aids children between the ages of birth and three-years old, which have been diagnosed with developmental delays or disabilities. E.I. provides much needed services to families with eligible children, through physical therapy, speech therapy, behavioral and developmental therapy, and social work.
If you like our Lumiere customized treatment plans and your child qualifies to receive these services through the Illinois Department of Human Services Child and Family Connections Program, we can help you obtain an evaluation and provide treatment.
