The Illinois Early Intervention Clearinghouse is pleased to announce we are loaning technology to help families in early intervention participate in live video visits, or telehealth. Many EI families are receiving services by live video visits. To help families with technology needs, the EI Clearinghouse has added several technology devices to the lending library:

  • iPads with a cellular data plan (device and internet access)
  • iPads without a cellular data plan (device)
  • Hotspot with cellular data plan (internet access)

All tech loan requests are added to a waiting list.  Please respond promptly to communications to ensure you receive a device as one becomes available.

To apply to receive the technology, please complete our Device Loan Request Form.

In addition, please contact us to request books and DVDs for you and your child to use at home.
