When moving, you should hand carry copies of your child's most current individual family service plan, or IFSP, and the most current evaluation reports to your new home to ensure they are not lost. If you are moving OCONUS or to a CONUS location with a DODEA school (and you live on installation), your child will receive EIS through the Defense Department’s Educational and Developmental Intervention Services, or EDIS, program. Your installation EFMP Family Support provider can also answer your questions. The Education Directory for Children with Special Needs has a list of resources specific to each state to help you determine who you should contact. The portion of the installation located within El Paso County forms a census-designated place (CDP), which had a population of 10,566 at the 2000 census. The 137,000 acre (570 km) installation extends south into Pueblo and Fremont counties.
The program is called different names in different areas, but it is often referred to as Part C because that is the section of the law that pertains to early intervention. It is 40 miles (64 km) north of Pueblo, Colorado in Pueblo County. Most CONUS locations, local school districts or health departments provide these early intervention services. All states and territories must provide early intervention services to children who have, or are at risk for having, developmental delays, from birth to their third birthday.
