Part C of IDEA was passed by the US Congress. The Federal Department of Education the Office of Special Education programs (OSEP) was given the responsibility for its implementation. In Michigan the Depart of Education of appointed the Lead Agency. Each State was permitted to name the State Agency that would take on the responsibility of implementation. Some have Health Dept. others Social Services, etc. The State Interagency Coordinating Council- SICC – is an advisory body to the Department of Education and is appointed by the Governor. Each State Agency has an Early On Coordinator in that Agency. The Early On Coordinator from Education is the official Part C Coordinator for the state. At the local level, since education is the lead agency, the responsibility for implementation falls to the local ISDs. Each local ISD has an Early On Coordinator responsible for the implementation of Part C – Early On in that particular service area. Every local ISD has a Local Interagency Coordinating Council LICC – that is advisory to the Early On Coordinator and the ISD. Major Grantees provide other services required by IDEA Part C: i.e., 1) data collection, 2) Evaluation, 3) Training & Technical Assistance, 4) Public Awareness and child find, 5) information for parents.
With this slide, show that Early On is not a service itself, but a system that links services together for a family. The blue on this slide is Early On.
