Description

First Steps: Kentucky’s Early Intervention System explores the services provided by this program. Participants learn how to refer children ages zero to three who have developmental delays, or medical conditions known to cause developmental delays, for First Steps services. How to work with the program to create an Individual Family Service Plan (IFSP) is explored.

After completing this training, participants will be able to:

• • Articulate how to refer children ages 0-3 years old who have developmental delays or medical conditions known to cause developmental delays to First Steps for evaluation.
  • Discuss services provided and how to work with the KEIS team to create and follow an Individual Family Service Plan (IFSP) for children zero through three years old.
