Early Intervention for children with special needs

[momosan]

Dear all,

I'm hoping for advice from anyone regarding this issue.

My son is 5 yrs old, diagnosed with autism. He's in an early intervention centre last year. He attends 6 hours per week of intervention. I've been trying to get the centre to let him attend 10 hours per week (daily of 2 hours) since mid last year.

The centre says that their funding model from MFS only requires 6 hours per week. In fact when I call other centres, they also say the same thing.

I want to check with both MFS and NCSS. To get more clarity on this matter. Can any mums with similar experience please share? I'm quite loss now.

This is a crucial time for my son who is starting to vocalise and understand things. I'm not rich enough to bring him for private therapy or lessons hence I can only depend on the intervention centres.

Childcare centres won't even consider having him.

Thanks in advance.

Hi, could you share if you managed to get more intervention treatment for your son, more than the 6 hours per week?
