D. Anecdote

Developmental Disability Resource Center became an evaluation entity for Early Intervention in the state of Colorado in early 2022. In an effort to expand their evaluation sites and access to appropriate equipment and seating for those evaluation rooms, they acquired a long term loan of a Chairries seat from CIDE. They plan to use this sturdy, toddler-sized chair in combination with a small table for play-based assessments and anticipate that it will get a lot of use and be used by 4-5 children per day and make a big difference in their ability to evaluate children.
