Tender ID: 581470
Tender Details
Tender Description
This Tender is invited by the Issuer.
The Australian Government is inviting the applicant via a one-off ad hoc process to apply to deliver services under the Pre-emptive early intervention pilot program for infants showing early signs of difference in social communication in Victoria from May 2025 to 30 June 2027.
The early years are a window of opportunity to positively influence children’s development. The Australian Government announced in the 2023–24 Federal Budget $22.1 million over 4 years to deliver 2 evidence-based pre-emptive early intervention pilots for infants aged 9-14 months who are showing early differences in their social interaction and communication development.
The pilots will help address the issue of developmental concerns not being detected early enough. Additionally, the pilots will inform whether such interventions are effective and should be considered in the context of future national approaches to relevant service systems.
This grant opportunity will fund the second pre-emptive early intervention pilot, under the 2023–24 Budget measure.
