Improving the quality of services to families and their infants and toddlers.

Foundations of Early Intervention in Philadelphia

This is a required professional development program for all providers to begin within 90 days after their initial hire into the Philadelphia Infant Toddler Early Intervention System (access to Foundations course for new Service Coordinators, MDE Team, and Supervisors). Steps 1-4 need to be completed as early as possible within those 90 days. Depending on your first workshop date, the remaining steps may be completed within months 3 through 12.
