The California Children's Services Medical Therapy Program is for children 0-21 years old with certain medical conditions. These are physical problems that affect the child's ability to control movements of the body.

The program provides:

• Occupational therapy
• Physical therapy
• Durable medical equipment consultation
• Home and school consultation

All services are provided free to families whose child has a medically eligible condition. The purpose of the Medical Therapy Program is to promote the greatest possible physical independence in eligible children.
