Abstract: This is a request for an extension of the Annual State

U.S.C. 1433, a State must provide assurance to the Secretary that the
State has adopted a policy that appropriate early intervention services
are available to all infants and toddlers with disabilities in the
State and their families, including Indian infants and toddlers with
disabilities and their families residing on a reservation
geographically located in the State, infants and toddlers with
disabilities who are homeless children and their families, and has in
effect a statewide system that meets the requirements of 20 U.S.C.
1435. Some policies, procedures, methods, and descriptions must be
submitted to the Secretary.
The review type for this collection is an extension. Additional
text was added to the areas of the application template and application
instructions that cover Sections III. B, III. C, and III. F to make the
instructions clearer and to minimize confusion as States prepare their
application materials.
