If you’re concerned about your 3–5-year-old’s development, you can request a referral for Early Childhood Special Education (ECSE) services. Anyone—parents, caregivers, or professionals—can make a referral. After evaluation, if your child qualifies, an Individualized Education Program (IEP) is created to address their unique needs. Parents play a key role in planning and decisions. The process helps ensure children get the support they need early. Resources are available to guide families through ECSE services.
