< Back CRAWFORD COUNTY EARLY INTERVENTION Early Intervention services and supports are provided to families, infants, and toddlers with disabilities or at-risk children to maximize the child's developmental potential. Early Intervention (EI) services are designed to help families with children who have disabilities or developmental delays. Sometimes children have difficulties reaching milestones in their development and need some help getting there. EI builds upon the natural learning occurring in those first few years. It is a process that promotes collaboration among parents, service providers, and others significantly involved with your child including family members, friends, or providers the child has regular contact within the community. EI services can enhance a child's development by answering parent's questions about their child's development, enhancing the parent's capacity to meet the developmental needs of the child through daily routines at home and in the community, enhancing the child's development and educational growth, and supporting children with developmental delays so that they can become more independent, thus preventing the need for more costly intervention in the future. Each family has the option to have their child screened to see if there are any concerns with their development or have a full evaluation complete to determine if their child is eligible for Early Intervention services. Early Intervention services are voluntary and are provided at no cost to the family. Crawford County Human Services Early Intervention Department is the starting point for Early Intervention services. A Service Coordinator is assigned to each family to help them coordinate and monitor services. They are the family's central point of contact. Services are provided in the child's natural environment, which includes the family home (this is where services most often occur), daycare settings, and other environments in the child's normal routine. Referrals for Early Intervention can be made directly to Crawford County Human Services by calling 814-724-8380 or toll-free at 877-334-8793. bclark@co.crawford.pa.us

Pennsylvania Youth Survey Since 1989, the Commonwealth has conducted a survey of school students in the 6th, 8th, 10th and 12th grades to learn about their behavior, attitudes and knowledge concerning alcohol, tobacco, other drugs and violence. The ‘Pennsylvania Youth Survey,’ or PAYS , is sponsored and conducted every two years by the Pennsylvania Commission on Crime and Delinquency. As of 2013 PAYS is offered at no cost to all public, private, and charter schools throughout the Commonwealth. Communities That Care (CTC) is an "operating system" that takes communities through a well-defined and structured process to prevent adolescent problem behaviors and promote positive youth development. CTC communities form a broad-based coalition and then collect local data on risk and protective factors shown by research to be associated with delinquency, violence, substance use, and school failure and dropout. After collecting this data the communities identifies 3-5 specific risk and protective factors to focus on, and then seeks evidence-based programs and strategies to address those priorities. After 2-3 years of implementing these strategies, the community re-assesses their risk and protective factors to measure impact and identify new emerging priorities. and more!
