I am desperate here to learn more about what our state has to offer and am just not finding any help. My EI specialist isn't helping me at all. All I have been offered is speech therapy 1 hour a week (the 20% that my insurance isn't paying for) and a therapy training grant to teach us Floortime. There HAS to be more!! PLEASE help me find it!!
I am interested in more than just what money or services I can get... who are the good Drs? Psychologists? therapists? schools? etc?? Anything you have to offer!!
