Donation to Assist Non-Verbal Child Presented by Nova Scotia Masonic Groups

Nova Scotia Early Childhood Development Intervention Services (NSECDIS) provide province-wide specialized services to families of young children between birth and school entry, who either have a biological risk for or a diagnosis of, developmental delay. Consultation, information, support, and services designed to meet individual needs of each child and family are delivered in the child’s home and may be extended to community-based programs. Services emphasize the enhancement of skills and ability through planned interactions to promote child development and family capacity.

In cooperation with the Masonic Foundation of Nova Scotia and St. Andrew's Lodge No. 1 in Halifax, Andrew Beeler, the Grand Master of Masons in Nova Scotia, yesterday presented Ms. Marly Naus, NSECDIS Developmental Interventionist, with a donation for the purchase of a current-generation iPad and specialized software to assist a non-verbal child with day-to-day communication.
