Abstract
Rates of developmental screening have increased, and understanding how to discuss delays with families is imperative. Knowledge of federal and state law regarding special education is needed. Families often need support to understand the complexity of early intervention and school district-based services. The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act is the law that mandates services for children from birth to age 21 years who require them. Early intervention provides services for children age 0 to 3 years who have a delay or a condition with a high probability of delay. School-based services for children age 3 to 21 years provide children with disabilities with a free and appropriate public education in the least restrictive environment. While details of the laws are state and location specific, understanding the general principles of the law is important to support children and families navigate this very complex system and receive needed support.
