Top Topics for Winter 2024-25

To help you get the most out of our Family Focus hub, we thought we'd go back to the basics. What is the Family Focus information hub? How can it help your family? Where does the information come from? Can I still access the hub if I don't receive services from Summit DD? Great questions - so glad you asked!

Concerned About Your Child's Development?

If your child is missing milestones, Early Intervention may be key to their development. We offer a free assessment tool to help you know if your child could benefit from EI services. Or you can contact our partner, Ohio Early Intervention (commonly known as Help Me Grow) to find out if your child is eligible.
