Increased Funding for Early Childhood Disability Services

This act aims to boost funding for early intervention and preschool special education services for children with disabilities. This means more children from birth to five years old will have access to crucial support, potentially improving their development and future opportunities. Parents can expect better availability and quality of services for their children.
Key points
The act increases financial resources for programs supporting the development of infants and toddlers with disabilities (up to 3 years old).
It provides additional funds for preschool programs for children with disabilities aged 3 to 5.
The goal is to restore per-child funding levels, which have declined in recent decades, to ensure high-quality services.
