Early Childhood
Learn about developmental milestones and the free early intervention services that may be available to support your infant or toddler’s needs.
Our early childhood project has served families of young children since 1993 through the New Mexico Family Infant Toddler Program (FIT). The FIT Program is a statewide program that provides early intervention services to infants, and toddlers who have or are at risk for developmental delays and families in New Mexico. Early intervention provides activities and strategies for families to use to promote their child’s development throughout the day. Early intervention can make a lifetime of difference! These services are provided at no cost to families.
Family Liaisons at PRO work with families of babies and young children and service providers to provide assistance and information about the importance of natural environments that help children thrive. Helping families understand the services they are receiving is important. As their children grow, we help family members build advocacy skills as they access different community resources. The staff is available to support families in helping them connect to other families in New Mexico or nationwide who are in similar situations. This may be based on diagnosis, disability, chronic illness, school, community issues, healthcare, and any other concerns. This helps families know they are not alone.
