Our efforts were recognized in 2004 when we received the Frances Owens Communities "Helping Young Children Award," presented by the former First Lady of Colorado, for demonstrating outstanding support for early childhood intervention and support programs in Colorado. In 2005, Robb & Wendy received the Pathways Achievement Award from the state of Colorado, honoring extraordinary achievements for people with disabilities.


Early Childhood Intervention Awareness Day

An estimated two percent of all children up to three years of age experience significant developmental conditions or delays. Studies have proven that there are critical windows for visual, speech, motor, and social development during the first years of a child’s life. Therefore, the earlier a developmental delay or disability is identified, the greater the impact that therapies and other early intervention services can have. However, many families in Colorado do not know about the early intervention programs available in their communities.

The Children's Hospital and Alliance, a group that manages and delivers community-based services to more than 11,000 children and adults with developmental delays and disabilities and their families, hosts Early Childhood Intervention Awareness Day. The event is designed to ensure that parents, community leaders, elected officials, and policymakers understand the importance of supporting early intervention efforts in their communities.
