About Us
Who are we?
We are the South Central Early childhood Intervention Program (ECIP). We are a non-profit organization that provides family-focused, home-based services to families. The children involved in our program are children with special needs, birth to school age, who experience a cognitive or physical disability, development delay, or are at risk for development delays. We work with the family to enhance ALL areas of the child's development, including, speech and language, motor skills, cognitive and social skills, etc. Our organization provides support to families in the Moose Jaw and surrounding South Central Saskatchewan region. Since the beginning of ECP in 1983, South Central ECIP has helped hundreds of children with special needs reach their developmental milestones and individual goals.
ECIP works as a team with other agencies and professionals to determine an appropriate program plan that can be delivered through the ECIP Interventions within the family home.
