Child Find Program
Measuring Milestones
Child find is a component of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA ’04) that requires PEAs to locate, identify, and evaluate all children with disabilities, aged birth through 21, located within their geographical boundaries who are in need of early intervention or special education services. At Child Find, we understand that all children are unique and develop at different paces. Child Find’s mission is to help to celebrate your children’s achievements of key milestones in the areas of play, learning, language development, and socialization.

Child Find Program: Measuring Milestones As children grow, they are constantly learning and reaching new milestones every day through play, watching other children and engaging with their family. At the screening we:
Conduct a developmental, hearing and vision screening in a play like format Provide suggestions that promote learning through play Support families with any recommended referrals or evaluations
The screening can be conducted at the clinic during your child’s wellchild check-up, in your home or in the Child Find office. Several times during the year we also offer large
Child Find Screening Events. Our staff believes that parents are their child’s first teachers, and we can help provide learning activities that families can easily do at home, to assist children in their development.
It is recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics to have children screened at regular intervals. Child Find does developmental screenings at 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 27, 30, 33, 36, 42, 48, 54, and 60 months of age.
