I have come across parents that have never heard of EI services or others that are receiving inadequate services.  Children with albinism are AUTOMATICALLY eligible for services based on medical diagnosis.  All children should have the option to receive these services.  Unfortunately, even with the federal law, some kids don&#8217;t get the opportunity. Sometimes its hard for parents to find out who handles the services for a particular state.
