Early Childhood Intervention Services (ECIS) – Flexible Support Packages
ECIS flexible support packages are designed for children with conditions such as Autism, and provide a range of tailored flexible service responses to meet the specific needs of the children and families. The packages aim to strengthen the capacity of families to promote optimal development and support the needs of the child with a disability or delay, and ease some of the additional pressures on parents.
Super Kids
Super Kids is a social skills and language group that helps children who have a language, developmental delay and/or autism by teaching them skills to assist with communication and socialisation. The group also teaches parents techniques to communicate with their child.
The program began as a partnership with the Doutta Gala Community Health Centre after a need was identified for more services in the Western region of Melbourne. Many families using the service have been on a waiting list for early intervention services or have been referred by a local kindergarten. Most families involved in the program speak English as a second language and live in western Melbourne.
