Agencies helping with the screening include New River Community Action, Head Start, New River Valley Early Intervention and the Radford Health Department. There are also agencies providing fun activities for the children. Some of these include issuing Library Cards and providing crafts. At the end of the screening, parents will be given results and suggestions about how to help with their children's development. This is not just for kids with difficulties.
All children develop differently and have different needs.
But, we could have more. We could reach every preschool child in the City of Radford. I'd say he's well on his way to achieving that goal. It sounds like so much fun, I might go myself. For more information or to schedule an appointment, call the Radford School Board Office at 731-3647.
