Monmouth County's Early Intervention Services for babies with disAbilities
Monmouth County's best Early Intervention services for infants and toddlers, from birth to age three, with developmental delays or disAbilities are at FRA. Home and community based services are for children who live in Monmouth County, NJ. Our services for children who are deaf or hearing impaired are provide in both Monmouth and Ocean Counties.
Professional therapists travel into Eatontown, Oceanport, Little Silver, Navesink, Rumson, Fair Haven, Shrewsbury, Tinton Falls, Red Bank, Colts Neck, Lincroft, Holmdel, Middletown, Keyport, Hazlet, Matawan, Union Beach, Leonardo and Atlantic Highlands.
Early Intervention Services are funded by the NJ Department of Health and Senior Services, with Part C federal funds. Learn more about this service and see how your child may qualify for enrollment under the criteria of NJEIS standards, which would provide some services at little or no cost to your family.
Early Childhood Groups
Help your child grow with friends in our Toddler Gymboree, Baby & Me yoga, or new groups that are forming in Red Bank, Middletown and Hazlet, NJ. Toddlers and pre-school children with developmental delays or disAbilities are welcome. Get to meet other families and learn by being included in the sessions.
Our Chance to Dance
Does your child love to dance? "Our Chance to Dance" is for those children with a disAbility who can not keep up with the pace of a typical dance class in the community. Join in the fun as FRA offers a wonderful alternative in Monmouth County. Look at the photos of our Saturday dance program held in Shrewsbury.
Family Support Programs
FRA helps families with children with disAbilities by providing information, support, and services to address their unique needs. Regular support groups, individual sessions, workshops, materials, sibling groups and a lending library offer great opportunities to meet your family's needs! Watch soon as our website will be adding a Chat section especially for parents!
Your child can learn easier with the computer!
NO experience is necessary to give your child a kick start into learning. Babies with disAbilities, as young as 12 months old, can use the computer to play, improve their eye contact, motor skills and communication. Individual at home services will help you and your child learn how to include the computer to meet your child's goals. The TECHConnection at FRA allows you to borrow adapted toys, switches and software from our Lending Library.
