Early Intervention Evaluations

MAC does not provide traditional early intervention evaluations, specializing in assessing an infant or toddler’s response to music and music related activities in its ongoing research study. MAC can, upon request, conduct functional, behavioral, play-based assessments that result in a written report. It must be noted, however, that these are done on a limited basis due to the workload of the Center. For parents new to early intervention, MAC will:

1. Refer to the county agency for evaluations at no cost to the parent
   
   
2. Make recommendations as to specific evaluations needed in order to develop a comprehensive early intervention program
   
   
3. Review records and reports relative to completeness of assessment
   
   
4. Assist the parent in understanding the ranges of typical childhood development
