Free Developmental Evaluations Through Your School District 

Families can request free developmental and special education evaluations through their local school district for children from birth through age 18. These evaluations may assess speech, language, learning, and overall development. Parents or guardians can contact their school district’s Special Education Department directly: no referral or diagnosis is required.
