About the Child Find Collection
Welcome to the Child Find Materials Special Collection. This collection from across the U. S. and its territories provides a listing of Child Find brochures, handbooks, and materials for distribution to families.
This collection highlights local and state efforts aimed at identifying young children who need special services. Materials in this collection are to raise awareness of families, medical professionals and child care workers about the indicators or "warning signs" of disabilities or developmental delays in young children.
We at CLAS are especially interested in materials targeting specific cultural groups and localities. We have searched for materials in a number of languages and for those which have unique design or presentation.
*We have received permission to provide full text options for all of the Child Find materials. Therefore they can be downloaded or printed.
