Narrative

The EI Program provides family-centered services that can help the developmental progress of eligible children. Early intervention helps children get the skills they will need to continue to grow into happy and healthy members of the community.

​Pernet’s Parent Aide Service is a state-funded program that complements the support that families receive from the Department of Children and Families.

If people are interested in having a home visitor work with them on household management, parenting skills, or access to community resources, they may request a Pernet Parent Aide through their DCF worker.
