Children at Risk

Summary of Study (limit 500 characters)

This study examines how the most vulnerable children in our state are identified and receive early intervention services that may enhance their chances to thrive in life. It specifically addresses:

• Recent changes in legislation relating to early learning;

• Restructuring and delivery of services in Oregon at state, county and local levels for children 0-6 (including 0-8 for 3rd grade reading assessments);

• Flow of federal and state funding, passed through to local Oregon communities;

• Refinement of a quantifiable data system evaluating effectiveness of interventions, funding inefficiencies, and tracking those historically under served.
