Early Start Local Performance Materials
Early Start has a variety of materials and products to support a statewide, comprehensive and coordinated system of child find, public awareness and outreach. Outreach materials increase appropriate referrals, increase the community's knowledge and understanding of early intervention services, and support families' role in early intervention.

These performance ratings are required by the Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP) to be posted on a state’s website under the authority of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) 2004. They are meant to demonstrate a local area’s effectiveness in meeting state targets to indicators described in the State’s Performance Plan for early intervention services for infants and toddlers (birth to 36 months of age). 2007 | 2008 | 2009
