Early On

13109 Schavey Road, Suite 4
DeWitt, MI 48820
Most parents wonder at times if their child is growing and developing like other children. If you question how your child is developing, "Don't worry. But don't wait."
Early On assists families with infants and toddlers, from birth until they turn 36 months or 3 years of age, who may be experiencing delays in their development or if they have a diagnosed disability.
After a child has been referred to Early On, the family is provided with a notice of referral and a request for permission to conduct an evaluation of their child’s development as part of the eligibility determination for Early On supports and services. If eligible, an Individualized Family Service Plan (IFSP) is developed to guide the early intervention process with families. The IFSP contains information about the services necessary to facilitate a child's development and enhance the family's capacity to support the child's development. Through the IFSP process, family members and service providers work as a team to plan, implement, and evaluate services specific to the family's concerns, priorities, and available resources. A service coordinator helps the family by coordinating the services outlined in the IFSP. Since Early On services continue only until age three, transition steps are outlined in the IFSP to support the child and family’s transition out of Early On.
