CJ's Fund Story
After a pregnancy filled with questions and wonder Craig Chilsen Moody, Jr (CJ) was born on November 30, 2008.
Our Mission
The CJ Moody Fund is the only private fundraising effort that benefits the Massachusetts Early Intervention Consortium (MEIC). The MEIC is a state-wide community of Early Intervention (EI) professionals dedicated to supporting a high quality and comprehensive Early Intervention delivery system across Massachusetts. Early Intervention (EI) serves children under the age of three with significant physical, developmental or medical disabilities. The MEIC has been advocating, strengthening and advising the Early Intervention Community for over 30 years.
What is Early Intervention?
Early Intervention (EI) is a statewide, integrated, developmental service for families of children between birth and three years of age. EI provides family-centered services that assist in the developmental progress of eligible children. Children may be eligible for EI if they have developmental difficulties due to identified disabilities, or if typical development is at risk due to certain birth or environmental circumstances.
