State Part C (early intervention) programs must report annually to the Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP) about how well the programs supported families to understand their rights, advocate for their children’s needs, and support their children’s learning and development.
Since the implementation of SSIP, DaSy and ECTA have tailored TA to meet the specific needs of each state. At a minimum, this involved TA specialists reviewing and providing input on states’ yearly SSIP documentation before submission to OSEP.
DaSy helps states build strong data systems and use data effectively to improve outcomes for young children with disabilities and their families.

Now that the SPP/APR submissions are done, take time to reflect, regroup, and prepare—laying the groundwork now will make next year’s process much smoother.
Use this tool to compare child outcomes summary statements across years and compare local child outcomes data to the rest of the state. This Excel-based calculator uses statistical formulas to determine if local and state level differences and the year-to-year differences in summary statements are likely due to factors other than chance (i.e., statistically different).
National estimates were determined by weighting and combining data from states that met criteria for high-quality data. Weighting allows states that serve larger numbers of children to exert more influence on the national estimates.
This provides an analysis of the FFY 2022 IDEA Child Outcomes highlights. The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) funds programs providing services designed to assist children with a range of delays and disabilities in achieving individualized developmental and functional goals. There are two types of programs. Part C Early Intervention is for children ages birth–2, and Part B Preschool is for children ages 3–5.
Does your state or program use the ECO Child Outcomes Summary (COS) process for measuring child outcomes? How much do you know about practitioner knowledge of the COS process? Well-equipped practitioners are one key to high quality child outcomes data, and now we have a tool to help practitioners and states understand practitioner knowledge about the COS process. The COS Knowledge Check (COS-KC) is a brief assessment that produces helpful reports for state planning and improvement.
