Every Parents wants a Good Life for Their Child
A child’s path to success begins long before school starts. Often, delays are not recognized until elementary school or later. Early detection of delays and Early Intervention (EI) services can put many children on a typically developing path.
Developmental Screening: ASQ-3
That’s why Help Me Grow offers FREE developmental screenings in partnership with Summit DD. The Ages and Stages Questionnaire, 3rd edition, or ASQ-3, is one of several screening tools recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics. It’s easy to use and can assist you in learning about your child’s development. An early childhood professional reviews each response and provides you with individualized results and recommendations for your child.
If your child is not meeting a milestone or experiencing significant delays, Early Intervention services may be available for you through Ohio Early Intervention – a statewide system that provides coordinated services to parents of infants and toddlers with disabilities or developmental delays.
Early Intervention services provided by Summit DD are at no cost to your family, regardless of income. EI services are made possible by funding provided through levy dollars, including the most recently passed Issue 3.
It is recommended that parents complete a screening for their child at 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24 and 36 months. The screening is free and takes the guesswork out of determining if your child is missing developmental milestones.
