SELANGOR has allocated an annual RM3mil through the Early Intervention Programme (EIP) to support families with special needs children.

State health, welfare, women empowerment and family committee chairman Dr Siti Mariah Mahmud said the state government was concerned for families with special needs children and thus had made financial help available to allow them access to educational, therapy and rehabilitation facilities.
