Prioritizing partnerships to focus on equity and inclusion for children under five
is critical to helping our earliest learners experiencing disabilities.
That’s the key finding revealed in the Oregon Early Childhood Inclusion Indicators Initiative Annual Report
released today by Oregon Department of Education (ODE), Early Learning
Division (ELD), and early learning system leaders and advocates around
the state.
The report, released during National Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month, outlines the vision, mission, and progress towards creating equal opportunity to access high-quality early care and education for children experiencing disabilities. It also highlights the need for continued investments to ensure families, providers, general and special education staff have the support they need to provide stable and continuous care for young children in community and early care and education environments.
