About Delta Gamma Center for Children with Visual Impairments
The Delta Gamma Center for Children with Visual Impairments serves blind and visually impaired children within a 50 mile radius from the center’s office. Early intervention services include qualifying children who are under the age of 36 months and not eligible for preschool services. For family support services, children can be any age, although some services offered are designed for a specific population or age group. If so, it will be indicated clearly on announcements and/or registration forms.
Our vision is that children and families will be given the support and training they need so children will develop to their potential, enjoy healthy relationships with family members and fully participate in their communities.

Frequently Asked Questions
“Early Intervention” might be the provider’s way of describing services that they provide to babies or young children. However, it might also indicate that the provider is a vendor for your state’s publicly funded program. This means the services with this provider might be covered by your state!
The first step in accessing these free services from your state is to get an evaluation. The evaluation will help the state determine what services your child qualifies for, if any. You can find your state’s local EI program by clicking here.
When you contact your local center, say “I have concerns about my child’s development and I would like to have my child evaluated to find out if they are eligible for early intervention services.” They will ask screening questions and arrange for an evaluation, which is provided for free.
Even if a provider offers parent training, it may look different from one provider to another. For example, an in-home provider might conduct a parent training session directly following a therapy session with your child to help explain what they’ve been working on with your child. At larger organizations, you might have a support group of families who are dealing with similar issues.
