The enrollment process at Civitan Preschool begins with a referral from the child’s Primary Care Provider (PCP). To initiate a referral, families may either contact our office directly or consult with their PCP to request an evaluation.
Once a referral is received, the child will undergo a comprehensive evaluation period. During this time, assessments will be conducted to identify any developmental concerns. Evaluations include a complete developmental protocol, and occupational therapy, physical therapy, and speech-language assessments as needed.
Children who demonstrate delays in two or more developmental areas—such as fine and gross motor skills, cognition, communication, adaptive behavior, and social-emotional development, and qualify for one therapy meet the eligibility requirements for services at Civitan Preschool.
Each child admitted to the program will have an Individualized Treatment Plan tailored to their specific needs. Our mission is to help every child reach their fullest potential and prepare them for success in public school. The Civitan Preschool team is dedicated to addressing all aspects of a child’s development, including challenging behaviors and kindergarten readiness skills.
Our services are funded through various sources, including Medicaid and TEFRA.
