Early Intervention
The Early Intervention Program (EIP) is a public program for children
under the age of three who are either suspected of having or at
risk for developmental delays or disabilities. Potentially eligible
children must be referred to the county program (Greene County,
518-719-3617) to receive EIP services. EIP is funded by New York
State and county governments. All EIP services are provided at no
cost to parents. Health insurance may be used for approved services.
A childs eligibility for the program can be determined only
by state-approved evaluators under contract, and all services must
be authorized by the county.
If you do not live in Greene County, please contact the Growing
Up Healthy Hotline number at 1-800-522-5006 for the contact person
in your county.
