Step of the Way
Early Steps is Florida’s early intervention system that offers services to eligible infants and toddlers, age birth to 36 months, who have or are at-risk for developmental disabilities or delays. Early intervention supports families and caregivers to increase their child’s participation in daily activities and routines that are important to the family.

Our Mission
The Florida Early Intervention System, through collaborative community partnerships, ensures that infants and toddlers with special needs and their families achieve their full potential in the context of everyday relationships, activities and places.
Our Vision
Florida’s infants, toddlers, young children and their families will have access to high quality, integrated supports and services to meet their unique needs. Florida’s Early Intervention Program is improving its service delivery system to better support infants and toddlers and their families – in places where they live, learn and play. An enhanced family-focused early intervention system called Early Steps has replaced the former Infants & Toddlers Early Intervention Program with a new Mission, Vision and Values.
