Provider FAQ

If your child is deemed eligible for EI Services, a service coordinator and a team of providers will work with you and your child in your home or other places your family spends its time until your child reaches the age of 3. Your child will then be reassessed to determine if s/he requires our Children's Services for those ages 3-13.

Riverside Early Intervention Services are free of cost to your child and family.

All Riverside EI Services are provided in whatever setting you and your child feel most comfortable in and are part of your everyday routine, this may include your home, babysitter, local park, etc. The time and place of each service meeting, as well as the number of visits per month, are determined by the family and are based upon the child's needs.

Any child, from birth to their third birthday, who has significant developmental delays or diagnosed conditions associated with developmental delays is eligible for EI Services. For more information about Riverside's EI Services and how to request a referral for services, please contact our EI Team at (937) 440-3099 or earlyintervention@riversidedd.org.

Your child's assigned service coordinator and the person our EI Team believes best meets your initial concerns for your child, otherwise known as a Primary Service Provider (PSP).

If it is has been determined that your child is eligible to continue receiving Riverside services after exiting the Early Intervention program, you will be connected with our Children's SSA (Service & Support Administrator) Team.

The Children's Team Service & Support Administrators (SSAs), or Case Managers, will help your child and family make the transition from Early Intervention to our Children's Services. They can also support you in a variety of ways, including: assessing your child and family's needs to develop an Individual Service Plan (ISP), guide you through the Individualized Education Program (IEP) process, connect you to community resources, coordinate services and more.
