  • Tonight our Board recognized the Elmer P. Beckman Center for 40 years of outstanding service to the community. The Beckman Center first opened in 1979 in Colerain Township when the state institution for people with DD closed. In May 2017, Active Day, a private service provider, assumed operation of the Board's three remaining adult centers, Beckman, Franks and Kidd. Beckman will be celebrating this important milestone with an open house on April 4. #celebration #cincinnati #beckman #40years #activeday

  • HCDDS Services Spotlight: Early Intervention (EI) is grounded in the philosophy that young children learn best from familiar people in familiar settings. “In the beginning, it’s always about learning more about the child and coaching the parents by giving them ideas and tools to try,” said Elizabeth Miller, an EI developmental specialist .⠀ ⠀ Hamilton County Developmental Disabilities Services has a team of physical, speech and occupational therapists, developmental specialists and behavior support coaches to help families with questions and priorities related to their child’s development. ⠀ ⠀ A team member will regularly visit the family and child at home or in community settings to listen to the family’s concerns, discuss goals and focus on strategies or activities to keep development moving forward. “Each family has its own routines and we need to learn those. Life isn’t structured, so we adapt to the family,” said Jennifer Bach, an EI developmental specialist. ⠀ ⠀ Early Intervention services are available to children from birth to age 3 who have a developmental delay or a qualifying diagnosed medical condition. Learn more about Early Intervention services at hamiltondds.org/earlyintervention or call (513) 434-3322.⠀ ****⠀ The HCDDS Services Spotlight will be a regular feature in 2019. We provide many different services throughout a person's life. We'll highlight some of those services to help you understand what we do and how we empower people to reach their potential and live meaningful lives.⠀ ****⠀ #hcdds #services #spotlight #earlyintervention #DDAwareness19 #team #families #children #ei #learn #cincinnati #ohio
