Presented is the first of two volumes on evaluation findings for a preschool handicapped project with six objectives--to create public awareness on available services; to identify and locate all handicapped children, ages 0 to 4 years, 7 months; to provide diagnostic evaluation services; to provide preschool programs as a special target area; to develop and maintain a child tracking system; and to provide resource information to all agencies and individuals concerned with the child's welfare. Sections are given to information on target service groups (approximately 234 children), paid and nonpaid personnel, activities (which included language stimulation training for parents), evaluation procedures (including staff meetings for internal evaluation and interviews with parents for external evaluation), evaluation results (such as that the tracking system seemed to work effectively in keeping tabs on key dates in the processing of each child) relating to each program objective, elimination of gaps or weaknesses, and information dissemination. Appendixes make up the bulk of the document and include an excerpt from state reporting requirements; copies of advertisements placed in mass media outlets, and forms, letters, and brochures from the mass media awareness campaign.
