The Project
For children with delayed development, providing appropriate services as early as possible has the greatest impact. Families have rights to individualized plans for services to ameliorate the child’s developmental problems. Despite available funding, D.C. serves the smallest proportion of young children in the U.S. Renee improved early intervention services in D.C. by representing families and enforced their right to quality and timely services; educating doctors, attorneys and community groups; and advocating for policy changes.
