Worried about a baby or toddler? If your child is under 3, you can contact Early Intervention Services for Infants and Toddlers, the early intervention program for Vermont, directly. Evaluations are free and you do not need a referral from a doctor. Children aged 3 and over can be evaluated for free through your local public school district.

Help with costs: Children in Vermont may qualify for free or low-cost health coverage through Medicaid or CHIP, which covers checkups and many mental health services. You can check eligibility at InsureKidsNow.gov.
