Frequently asked questions
What ages are served?
Early Intervention serves children from birth through age three, the period when developmental supports tend to be most impactful.
Where do services happen?
Most often in the child's home and other places they naturally spend time, since that's where learning and routines actually happen.
Is there a cost to families?
Tennessee's Early Intervention System (TEIS) covers eligible services. We help families understand what is covered and how to access it.
