IDEA Child Outcomes Highlights for FFY 2020
Center for IDEA Early Childhood Data Systems (DaSy)
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. States report data annually to the Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP) in the U.S. Department of Education on three child outcomes for Part C and Part B Preschool programs: (1) Social Relationships; (2) Use of Knowledge and Skills; and (3) Taking Action to Meet Needs. For Part C Early Intervention, a comparison of national averages from FFY 2019 to FFY 2020 showed increases in some outcomes and decreases in others. For Part B Preschool, there was no change in the percent of children exiting at age expectations in Social Relationships from FFY 2019 to FFY 2020, and a decrease in national averages in all other outcomes. State Part C and Part B, Section 619 annual performance reports provided key reasons for declines, including impacts of COVID-19, other data quality issues, and changes to state data collection methods. Further analyses, particularly at the state and local level, are needed to understand trends.
