The details
Who it’s for
For children under 7 and their families. It looks for early signs of delays in speech, movement or behaviour, so the child gets help before school.
How often
At the 18-month vaccination, the CLSC nurse can fill in a development checklist (ABCdaire 18 mois) with you. Any other time, if you are worried.
Cost
Free and voluntary, in every region of Quebec.
