AN ACT RELATING TO HEALTH AND SAFETY -- MATERNAL AND CHILD HEALTH SERVICES FOR CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL HEALTH CARE NEEDS -- EARLY INTERVENTION EXTENSION--BRIDGE TO PRESCHOOL

Summary

The measure requires the state health and education departments to create a plan that extends early‑intervention services for eligible infants past age three, closing the gap before preschool starts in September. It helps children with developmental delays and their families by providing continuous support, which the sponsors say improves school readiness and lowers long‑term costs. The bill also sets up new rules, a complaint process, and reporting requirements to track the program’s success.
