NYC Early Intervention Program

The NYC Early Intervention Program supports families of children from birth to age 3 who have developmental concerns or a diagnosed condition that may result in a developmental delay. Families can receive a free evaluation to determine whether their child is eligible for Early Intervention services, followed by a service plan developed around the child’s and family’s needs. The program is voluntary, confidential, and family-centered, and is available at no cost to eligible families regardless of income, disability, or immigration status, health insurance, including Medicaid, may be used without direct cost to the family. Families can get started by calling 311 and asking for Early Intervention or using the online referral portal.

Phone: Dial 311 (within NYC) or 212-639-9675 (if outside NYC)
