Description

We are extremely excited to release this episode. We originally recorded this in 2023, but didn't get the opportunity to release it due to some unexpected life changes that made us shut down for a little bit. We were also having some minor static issues that we didn't realize had happened until after we had already recorded the episode.

This episode is something that we are looking forward to sharing because it covers so many of the frequently asked questions about how to get Regional Center services for your child. Deanna and Guadalupe were great at giving us all the info needed to be able to share with our listeners. Some of the questions covered:

• What is Regional Center
• Who or What determines eligibility
• How do you get assessed and how long does it take
• What happens at 3yrs old
• Can you lose services
• What happens if you are having a problem with you Service Coordinator
• What is Institutional Deeming
• What types of things get funded

Here are some useful Info:
