Serving Children……Serving our Community…..Serving the Future
The Children’s Services department focuses on supports for children and their families. This includes early intervention therapies through the Indiana First Steps system. We use individualized strategies to assist children at risk for or with developmental delays – helping every child reach his or her full potential.
PATHS Summer Camp
Sycamore Services PATHS Program is very excited to announce Summer Camp 2010. This year we will be holding the camp at Town Hall (The Old Middle School) next to the park. The camp will run from June 1st – August 6th, 2010. The hours will be 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. The cost will be $85 per week (which includes activities and daily snacks.) All campers will need to bring their own sack lunch daily. You may sign up week by week or for the entire summer. We are still confirming all the activities which may be subject to change. Attached you will find the themes and some of the suggested activities that may take place.
It is also our plan to participate in the weekly free movies at Royal Theater and Lunch Bunch at the Park. We are working with the Parks Department to see if we can coordinate our activities with the Summer Parks Program. More information to come regarding this as plans develop.
Please complete the application and return to PATHS Before and After School Program staff or by fax or in person by May 5th to reserve your spot. Our office contact information is:

PATHS Application
I would like more information about PATHS
To participate in the Indiana First Steps program, those children, ages birth to three years old, should fall in one of these three categories:
- The child is experiencing a developmental delay
- The child has a diagnosed condition that has a probability of resulting in a developmental delay
- The child is at risk of developing a delay if early intervention services are not provided.
Children may be referred to the system from their doctor, hospital staff, other social service agencies, or by the parent. To make a referral anyone can call 317.257.2229.
Sycamore’s eligibility determination team will come out to the child’s home and perform an evaluation on the child’s progress. The family will be assisted in choosing providers for planned therapies which include:
Sycamore provided therapies to 549 children in 2009. Many received a variety of services.

Therapists continue to educate themselves and improve their ability to meet the needs of your child. Individualized Family Service Plans are based on your child’s current developmental needs, no two therapy plans are the same.
