Early Intervention Programs by State

Early intervention (EI) programs provide crucial services and support for infants and toddlers under 3 years of age who have developmental delays or disabilities.

Early intervention focuses on helping young children reach developmental milestones through therapies and education tailored to their individual needs. Research shows that early intervention services can have significant long-term benefits for a child's development.

The good news for parents is that early intervention programs are available in every U.S. state and territory through the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). This means essential therapies are accessible and affordable for families.

The programs on this page are organized by state to help you find and connect with early intervention resources in your community.

Early access to therapy can make a critical difference in your child's life. Giving them the support they need now can help them develp to their full potential in the future.
