About Early Intervention
What is Early Intervention?
Early Intervention is a range of services that helps children with developmental delays or disabilities.
Early Intervention focuses on helping children have full, wholesome lives that will enable them to learn the basic and new skills that typically develop during the first few years of life, such as:
Cognitive (thinking ability, problem solving, comprehension)
Communication (listening, understanding, speaking)
Physical (mobility and dexterity)
Social (feelings and building relationships)
Independent (self-care)
Why Early Intervention?
A child’s early years of development are the most critical, and act as the basis for the future gaining of skills. Early identification of a child with a developmental disability or a child who is not developing at a characteristic rate needs intervention. Early detection or intervention services may prevent further delays/deficits and lessen the effects of an existing developmental disability. Templer Foundation strongly believes that every journey begins with the first step, and aims to provide quality early intervention services; services that can change a child’s developmental trajectory and improve outcomes for children, families, and communities around the world. In addition, Templer Foundation has launched Early Intervention programs globally, in efforts to increase the awareness of children and families living with developmental disabilities, and to provide hope whilst educating parents and caregivers on the early detection and the path to intervention.
Who is eligible for the Early Intervention Program?
Any child, infant, toddler, or young adult struggling with basic learning is eligible for early intervention.
