Early Intervention: Understanding Diagnosis

[vc_row][vc_column width=”3/4″][vc_column_text]

Understanding Diagnosis:

If your child has been diagnosed and you still have questions there are resources you can turn to obtain more information. Start with the professional that made the diagnosis. Ask them to explain what the diagnosis means for your child and family. They can also provide you with information regarding any resources in the community that work with children with this diagnosis.
