OCALI Family Support Specialists

What is a Family Support Specialist?

An OCALI Family Support Specialist is a parent who will partner with families of young children, so they are able to access early identification and services as soon as possible. Family Support Specialists provide families with information and resources so they can better support their child with a developmental delay or suspected delay.
