Lifesteps’ Child Check program will provide free developmental and autism screenings on Aug. 21 for at Lifesteps Stirling Village.

The screenings are for children — newborns through age 5 — from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. at 375 Stirling Village Dr. in Butler.

Through Lifesteps Child Check program, parents are provided with knowledge on their child’s current state of development and guided to resources when delays are detected. The screening is a brief assessment using games and activities to determine a child’s current level of development.

“The early years are a critical time in a child’s development. As such, Lifesteps urges families to proactively have children assessed for developmental delays,” a news release from the organization said.

A screening takes approximately 30 minutes to complete and the results are discussed immediately with parents or guardians. Appointments for in-person or online screenings are required and can be scheduled by calling Lifesteps at (724) 283-1010 or 1 (800) 225-2010.
