We’d love you to partner with us in nurturing the growth and potential of EVERY child.

Some of the most meaningful learning happens during the everyday moments families already share. 💙Early Intervention home visits bring support into a child’s familiar environment, where playtime, mealtime, and daily routines become opportunities to build new skills. Along the way, families receive practical strategies that help them feel more confident supporting their child’s development.Learn why home is such a powerful place for children to learn and grow: mypcd.org/home-is-where-learning-begins/#EarlyIntervention #EarlyLearning #PartnersInChildDevelopment ...

Leah has so much to say, and she has found many ways to say it. 💛Through Early Intervention Services, Leah and her family worked with a speech-language pathologist using speech, signs, gestures, pictures, facial expressions, and play. Family coaching and connections to additional resources helped ensure that support continued beyond each weekly visit.Today, Leah is an expressive toddler who loves connecting with others and trying new things.Read Leah’s story: ei.mypcd.org/project/leahs-story-an-expressive-toddler-who-is-blossoming/#EarlyIntervention #CommunicationDevelopment #PartnersInChildDevelopment ...
