Background

About Nitza Espinosa

What I do for my families: I conduct home visits in accordance with the referral to the Early Intervention (EI) program and maintain extensive documentation to comply with state regulations. I assist eligible children and their families in gaining access to early intervention services and other services identified in their Individualized Family Service Plan. I manage the active ongoing process that involves coordinating the provision of early intervention services, and other services, such as, referrals to other community resources, that the child needs or is being provided. I facilitate the timely delivery of available services and continuously seek the appropriate services and situations necessary to benefit the development of each child being served for the duration of the child's eligibility through the Early Intervention. I assist with the transitioning from the Early Intervention Program to the Committee on Preschool Special Education. If it is determined through the CPSE that a child is "no longer eligible to receive services", I will help the child and family make the transition to other community resources.
