Job Responsibilities
The Service Coordinator supports young children with developmental delays and their families by coordinating Early Intervention (EI) services from eligibility through transition. Serving as the family's main point of contact, this role helps families understand the EI process, leads IFSP meetings, and ensures services are delivered on time and in a family centered way.
Service Coordinators partner closely with families, honoring them as the primary decision‑makers for their child. They support family assessments, explain child development and available services, and connect families with community resources that promote overall well‑being.
This role also includes planning and coordinating smooth transitions out of Early Intervention, including explaining preschool special education options, coordinating transition meetings, and completing required timelines and documentation.
Strong communication and organization are key. Service Coordinators maintain regular contact with families, providers, and partners; use interpretation services when needed; and ensure accurate documentation, consent, and confidentiality in compliance with state and federal regulations.
Service Coordinators participate in team meetings, complete required trainings and administrative tasks, and engage in ongoing professional development while remaining flexible in a dynamic, family focused environment.
DDRC is an Equal Opportunity Employer and are committed to providing reasonable accommodations to qualified individuals with disabilities in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
