The NYS Early Intervention Program serves infants and toddlers with developmental disabilities and delays from birth to age three and their families in their own homes and communities statewide.

Why our current providers work for NYS Early Intervention (EI):

“I consider it an honor to empower EI families to become their child’s best role model and advocate.” – from a Speech-Language Pathologist

“It is amazing to be a part of our children and families’ journey while helping pave the way for a successful future!” – from an Occupational Therapist

“Working with EI children and their families answers our desire to help change the path of a human being immediately, while representing ‘what can be’ to the families who are desperate for your help and guidance.” – from an EI administrator
