The Early Intervention Program (EIP) is a comprehensive interagency program that supports infants and children with developmental delays in their efforts to realize their full potential. It reduces the likelihood of delays among at-risk children, assists and empowers families to meet their child's and their own needs, and entitles children, regardless of race, ethnicity or income to services through the program. The EIP is legally mandated under Title II-A, §2552, of Article 25 of the NYS PHL to ensure that eligible children receive therapeutic services as soon as possible, and it has been recognized as an essential service during COVID-19 by NYS. The process of getting children to services includes processing referrals to the EIP, scheduling evaluations and Individualized Family Service Plan (IFSP) meetings, convening IFSP meetings, and authorizing services. Children continue to receive IFSP meetings every six (6) months for as long as they are in the Program.
