Project Description:

During the first three years of a child's life, critical development occurs in the areas of movement, communication, sensory exploration, social interaction, and bonding. For a child with complex and intensive needs, specialized supports can be critical in nurturing developmental progress. Vermont I-Team Early Intervention project helps children access home and community environments, access additional resources and/or adaptive equipment, develop and/or adapt materials that meet a child's developmental needs, learn useful strategies and interventions, identify risk factors that may point to the need for additional referrals.
