FSCD Program

The Behavioural & Developmental Supports (BDS) Program is financed by Family Support for Children with Disabilities, and PREP is an approved provider (FSCD). Programs offered by PREP BDS assist families with children ranging in age from six months to roughly twelve years.

PREP supports both the child’s growth and the health and development of the family unit by using a family-centered, play-based approach to our services. Up to two therapists may be involved in contracts; they will assess concerns, provide recommendations for approaches, and, where practical, interact directly with the child. Goal areas can be chosen to assist the family in the community and at home (i.e. grocery stores, libraries, places of workshop, etc.).

Specialist services based on clinical judgement for kids six months to 12 years old.

A program called Specialized Services is created specifically to assist families and children with diverse medical needs. The trans-disciplinary approach enables the team to work cooperatively to satisfy the diverse needs of a child and their family by engaging therapists from up to four disciplines (as chosen by the FSCD MDT process). The domains of behaviour management, social interactions, communication, cognition, gross and fine motor development, mobility, and practical daily living skills are frequently addressed in goals.
