The Lower Shore Early Intervention Program



The Lower Shore Early Intervention Program is an early identification and care giver education and consultation program.  We aim to help parents and child care providers recognize what are truly concerning behaviors versus developmental milestones or delays, and how to prevent the behavior from becoming the imprint for the child's future behaviors.  LSEIP wants to empower parents; we want to help parents question and consider if there are more than just typical behavioral issues going on (medical issue, past trauma, delays, etc.) which may have not been identified previously. 

The Lower Shore Early Intervention Program (LSEIP) serves the birth-to-five population in child care by consulting with parents and caretakers in their efforts to address a child’s behavior issues. We evaluate behaviors and consult with caregivers by providing specific, consistent techniques to use that will help improve behaviors.  Referrals to mental health clinicians and other community agencies for continuing supportive services may be made, if there is need for additional services upon completion of LSEIP’s plan of action for the child.

LSEIP is committed to helping our children become socially and emotionally ready for kindergarten.  We believe that when a child is not emotionally ready for school, he or she may not be capable of academic success.  Please partner with us as a community to help children become more emotionally ready for school and life!
