Early Childhood Services @ The GRIT Program

GRIT has been providing inclusive early childhood services since 1982. Funded by Alberta Education, through Program Unit Funding (PUF), young children with a developmental disability can access early childhood services to support their learning, participation and development for up to three years prior to grade one. Educational support occurs in the every day places where children play and grow (e.g. home, community, preschool, kindergarten etc.). GRIT uses a Primary Service Provider (PSP) Approach to teaming with families. The PSP Approach strongly aligns with GRIT’s value of being family-centered and helps build strong relationships with families so GRIT can be responsive to the individual priorities of families. Interested in registering your child for early childhood services with GRIT? Applications can be submitted online, by email to gritprog@gritprogram.ca, or by fax 780-455-1806.
