PRESCHOOL SPECIAL EDUCATION SERVICES

Committee on Preschool Special Education
(CPSE) (Children 3 to 5 years of age)

Westchester Therapy Solutions is an approved NYS provider for CPSE services. We provide pediatric occupational therapy, physical therapy, and speech & language therapy through CPSE. This is a county and state funded program for children from 3 to 5 years old to receive intervention at no cost to the family. Occupational therapy, physical therapy and speech & language therapy are only 3 of the many services offered. An evaluation is performed by your local school district to identify what type of intervention your child qualifies for. A parent can either call our office or the CPSE program at their local school district directly. This service is managed by the Committee on Preschool Special Education in each child’s local school district.

Preschool special education services are provided where it’s best for the child – in places such as your home, day care, preschool, our facility, or other community setting. All decisions for frequency and location of therapy are the decision of the Committee on Preschool Special Education. After the evaluations are complete and decisions are made with you as a committee member, the district or you as the parent can call our office to begin the process of scheduling your preschool occupational therapy, physical therapy, or speech & language therapy services.

Are my child’s motor and language skills age appropriate?

Please note: The milestone age equivalents are to be used as a general guide as there is always a range of typical behavior.
