This resource supports states in examining issues of equity in the provision of early intervention (EI) and early childhood special education (ECSE) services. The Critical Questions for Addressing Racial Equity are policy and programmatic questions that can help states identify disparities in their service delivery system. Many of the questions are relevant at the local level as well. The answers to these questions are intended to spark discussion within the state and support the long-term goal of equitable access, services and supports, along with positive outcomes for all young children and their families, especially those who have been historically underserved.
