Our Early Intervention programs are child and family centered services for children up to 5 years of age in preschool, home, community, and clinical settings. We address the unique learning styles and challenges of each child, and design an individual program to meet their needs. We support parents as they learn to interact with their child more effectively. Our primary locations are at our Lynn Centers in Brentwood and Pittsburg and our George Miller Centers in Richmond and Concord. Click on the program listings below for more information.
Bright Beginnings is designed for children from birth to age three (up to age 6 at Lynn Center in Brentwood, when referred by a school district, after the child turns 3) with significant communication and social delays and for those who may have a diagnosis of Regulatory Disorder or Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
