This virtual presentation will guide parents through the process of transitioning their child from Early Intervention (EI) to the Committee on Preschool Special Education (CPSE).
The New York State Early Intervention Program is part of the national Early Intervention Program for infants and toddlers with disabilities and their families. It’s administered by the NYS Dept. of Health through the Bureau of Early Intervention. In New York State, the program has been in effect since July 1, 1993.
To be eligible for services, children must be under 3 years of age and have a confirmed disability or established developmental delay, as defined by the State, in one or more of the following areas of development: physical, cognitive, communication, social-emotional, and/or adaptive.
Preschool Special Ed policy ensures that preschool children with disabilities receive timely and appropriate services in the least restrictive environment and that those services are coordinated with State and local agencies. (You can learn more about pre-school special ed here.)
