  • Early identification of developmental delays
  • Home visits during the first year to weigh and measure the baby and discuss concerns
  • Screening clinics (appointments with a registered nurse, licensed registered dietitian, social worker and developmental specialist)
    Referrals
  • Services are provided at no charge (donations are accepted). Clinic schedules vary by county.
