An early intervention agency provides support and services to infants and young children who may have developmental delays or disabilities. These agencies aim to identify and address potential challenges early on, helping children reach their developmental milestones and improve their overall quality of life. Services may include therapy, education, and guidance for both the child and their family. The agency collaborates with parents, caregivers, and professionals to create an individualized plan tailored to the child's needs. Early intervention can have a significant positive impact on a child's future growth and development.
