Early identification of special needs and developmental delays is critical to your child’s success. Here’s a program to help you find services and resources across California.

It is a locally developed resource and referral system that identifies a family’s child development needs. It provides the care coordination necessary to ensure the best and most timely access to appropriate services. Help Me Grow programs are designed to share resources, tools, and best practices for early identification of special needs. The programs help families learn about and find their way around California’s early childhood system of care.
