Regional Program Reports

Each year, the state of North Dakota must publish the performance of each of their Early Intervention providers. North Dakota has eight regions of service delivery for Early Intervention. There is one service coordinator or DD Program Management unit within each of those regions; however, there can be multiple Early Intervention Service (EIS) or Infant Development providers within a region. Also there are some Infant Development providers that have programs in multiple regions.

Monitoring reports and findings are issued to both the Infant Development program and the applicable Developmental Disabilities Program Management Unit within a region. These reports should be considered reflective of both the local Infant Development program and the DD Program Management.
