Early Childhood Intervention Support

Early intervention is specialised support for children with disability, autism, developmental delay and other additional needs. Early intervention should happen as soon as possible after a child’s needs are identified. It might include therapies, education and other supports.

It can help children develop the skills they need to take part in everyday activities. Sometimes children who get early intervention might not need long-term support.
