Developmental & Sensory Screening

The Sensory Program’s purpose is to screen children birth to five and a half years of age for vision and hearing impairments that could affect their developmental growth and diminish their quality of life and success in school. The early detection of vision and hearing impairments through screenings leads to referrals for further evaluations, to determine if there is impairment. These free screenings are offered in Gila County (contact: Chrisann Dawson), San Carlos Apache Tribe (contact Thuy Bishop), Maricopa county (contact Patty Merk) and Pinal County (contact Esther Turner)
