Head start disability services - sewall provides disability services to children enrolled in head start classrooms throughout denver. Sewall's team of specialists carries out activities needed to conduct observations, screen and assess children as well as develop individual educational plans for children with disabilities in all denver head start sites. After their assessment, the team creates an appropriate plan of educational interventions for the child.

Childcare - sewall's accredited childcare program offers full-day, "wraparound" care for toddlers between the ages of one-and-a-half to three, and preschoolers between the ages of two-and-a-half and five. The childcare program is a model for including children with and without special needs in classrooms at three sites. Learning is strengthened and reinforced as the child's individual plan and class curriculum are communicated between toddler/preschool and childcare staff.

Infant/toddler - children, from birth to age three, having identified special needs, and their parents are provided early intervention services in a variety of settings, including home and childcare. The child's potential is developed within the context of typical daily activities. Early childhood educators consider play a child's work. Beginning at age two, parents may enroll their child in a transitional toddler/preschool program at sewall for children with and without special needs.
