Children – from birth to age three – who are experiencing or are at risk for a developmental delay/disability are also eligible, as are individuals believed to have at high risk of parenting a child with a developmental disability.
All 21 regional centers across California remain open and are accepting referrals to the Early Start program, although some regional center staff may be working remotely and not holding face-to-face meetings in their offices. As we navigate new challenges, Early Start will continue working to find new ways to support our consumers, families, providers, staff and communities.
