While about a dozen local and area non-profit entities are involved in a new project, they each want the same thing – for young children to be screened early for developmental issues. The project will entail handing out packets of information to public-health facilities and agencies that care for young children. The packets will then be distributed to parents who will learn about the early signs of potential problems.
