Who May Refer

Anyone may refer a child for services as long as the legal guardian has given verbal or written permission.

What Happens Next

In order to know what is important to your family, we begin by scheduling an initial meeting with you to discuss your child’s birth and developmental history, what your child does well, and how your child needs help.  Together we develop an action plan to address these needs.  As changes occur, we rely on you to speak to the individual staff members involved about changes in your child or family’s needs.

Single Point of Contact

In order to simplify the referral process for families, the COCDA has developed a Case Management Team to be the single point of contact     A Case Management Consultant will guide the family through the process.
