Hi Johanna,
I'm in this space. I've worked in Early Intervention and Preschool Special Ed in NYC for many moons.
IncludeNYC is a good place for referrals.
https://includenyc.org/help-center/resources/early-childhood-programs/ For
Preschool the parent goes to their district to open a case. Then they receive a list of evaluation sites.
For
Early Intervention the parent can call 311 to ask for Early Intervention. Then once they call Early Intervention a service coordinator is assigned who should help the parents find an evaluation agency.
In addition, if a
referral source can recommend a specific agency to the parent then they can do that as well.
If you want more info simply contact me.
Best, Scott
