OUR PROGRAM
ESP serves children with many disabilities, including developmental delays, hearing impairments, vision impairments, motor impairments, autism and multiple disabilities. ESP builds upon and provides support and resources to family members and caregivers to enhance children's learning and development through everyday learning opportunities.
The program works to strengthen, support and empower families of diverse backgrounds to understand, enhance and reinforce necessary skills to promote their child's development. Thus, participation by parents or caregivers is fundamental throughout all of our program opportunities.ELIGIBILITY REFERRAL
