About The Position
The Children's Developmental Services Agency (CDSA) is one of a statewide network of 16 regional agencies that provide interdisciplinary early intervention services through the North Carolina Infant Toddler Program. The CDSA is the local lead agency for the Infant Toddler Program (ITP), a federally mandated program under Part C of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), serving children ages birth to 3 yrs. with or at risk for developmental disabilities, and their families. Lead agency responsibilities include the oversight of the administration of the Infant Toddler Program, ensuring that evaluation, case management and intervention services are available within a multi-county catchment area and that children eligible for the program receive recommended services either through a network of enrolled early intervention service providers or directly from the CDSA. The CDSA is the single portal of entry for birth to 3 referrals to the Infant Toddler Program (ITP) and has primary responsibility for providing multi- and interdisciplinary developmental evaluation and assessment, determination of eligibility for the program, service coordination for eligible children, and consultation and technical assistance to service providers and other professionals who provide recommended intervention services for eligible children and families. A local CDSA will typically have 50-75 staff, including service coordinators, clinicians, management and administrative and support staff.
