Parent Contact Update
-October 2019-
Each month, Parent Contacts receive these updates. 
Please feel free to share them with your service coordinator and other families you may know receiving services!
Did you know...

October is a NCSEAM Family Survey month? If you have been receiving EI Services for at least six months, and did not get a survey to complete in March, you may be asked to fill one out. Your honest feedback helps the Department of Public Health know how your EI Program is doing in three key areas. if you have questions about the survey, call us at 877-353-4757 or visit eiplp.org/family-outcomes
Did you know...

we have a private Facebook group for Parent Contacts? Parent Contacts often tell us they would like to be in touch with other families in the role, but that traveling to meet can be difficult. If you are on Facebook, and would like a way to talk with other Parent Contacts, you can request membership by clicking here, or searching for "EIPLP Parent Contacts " on Facebook. All requests from current Parent Contacts will be approved.  
Did you know...

as a Parent Contact you are one of the first people the EIPLP reaches out to with opportunities? Be sure to keep an eye out for our emails throughout the year, because we will let you know as we hear about conferences, workshops, and chances to get involved in the EI System!  
Did you know...

all of our past Parent Contact Updates are archived on the EIPLP website? They are full of great information for families in EI, especially those who may want to get involved on a level beyond their individual services. These opportunities and resources can be accessed here, or by visiting eiplp.org/parent-contact-updates/

The  IFSP Process is the ongoing development, implementation, assessment and review to determine the effectiveness of the IFSP in addressing child and family outcomes.
  
We love that you are here!

Parent Contacts are an important part of the Massachusetts Early Intervention System. Parent Contacts are parents and guardians of children currently receiving EI services who volunteer to receive information from the EIPLP and share it with other families. If your child is no longer receiving services, or you no longer wish to be the Parent Contact for your EI program, please let us know by calling 
1-877-353-4757 or emailing [email protected] so that we can identify another family from your program.
