The Clare Early Intervention and School Age Teams provide specialist therapeutic assessment and intervention to children with complex disabilities and/or developmental delay in the Clare catchment area. The service is a partnership between Enable Ireland, the Brothers of Charity (Clare), Clare Federation for People with Special Needs and the HSE.
