Early Intervention

Early Intervention is the process of responding to concerns about a child’s development, reducing potential delays and maximizing healthy development.  The earlier a concern is addressed, the more parents can do to assist the child during this critical period of growth and development.  View our developmental milestones checklist to see if your child appears to be experiencing delays in development.

Kids on the Move provides early intervention services to children under age 3 who have developmental delays or disabilities and reside within the Alpine School District (Utah County). If you are concerned about your child’s development, make a referral and we will provide a FREE assessment to determine if your child is eligible for services, which may include:

  • Coming Soon….Family Survey

    The purpose of this survey is to gather information about the ways in which Kids On The Move is helping you and your child. The survey is to be completed by families who are currently receiving or have recently completed early intervention services. The results of this survey will help guide efforts to improve services for children and families receiving early intervention services. Your answers to the survey will be kept confidential and will not have any impact on the services your child or family currently receives or may receive in the future. A team member will bring out the survey on their visit with you in March. We appreciate your willingness and time in filling out the survey.
