Connecticut Birth to Three System Evaluation Project

About

A multi-faceted, multi-year evaluation of the Connecticut Birth to Three System was undertaken at the request of the state legislature in order to explore the costs, service delivery, and outcomes of Birth to Three services.

The project was conducted under contract and direction of the lead agency, Connecticut Department of Mental Retardation.

Four interrelated studies explored the following issues:

• What is the relationship between costs and child/family services?
• Is there a relationship between service frequency and intensity and child development and family profile?
• Are families benefiting from Birth to Three services?
• What are effective services as identified through the early intervention literature and documented by families and providers?
