The SAS early intervention program is committed to respecting the inherent worth and dignity of each child and family.
Early Childhood Developmental Services provides early intervention for children, ages 0-3 who are at risk for developmental delays or who may be diagnosed with a developmental disability. In partnership with California Early Start services, this program provides age-appropriate educational services and therapeutic interventions using evidence-based practices. Services are provided by credentialed teachers on a 1:1 basis in natural environments.
SAS is dedicated to bringing quality in-home early intervention services to children and families in the following areas:
Cognitive and Physical Development Speech and Language Development Social and Emotional Devlopment Adaptive (self-help) Development Behavior Management
The program’s premise is that parents/caregivers possess an unparalleled knowledge of a child’s unique attributes and needs, and are therefore in the best position to provide input to service identification. As thefoundation of their program, SAS emphasizes a multi-disciplinary collaborative partnership which is relationship-based and culturally responsive. Services are family-centered, and employ appropriate curriculum and intervention strategies individually tailored for each childthat we serve. SAS is committed to partnering with children/families to promote optimal development.
