What is Early On?
Early On is the name for Michigan's early intervention system. An early intervention system includes:
- activities – things you do day-to-day or programs where your child can play and learn with others
- supports – can be help, resources or information
- services – when a trained professional works directly with your child or helps you learn how to support your child.
Early On can help your child with his or her development. A child's development is their process for growing and learning. It can also help your family to be better able to help your child grow and learn.
The Michigan early interventions system comes from a federal law called Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). Part C of the IDEA law:
- tells how each state needs to plan and provide their early intervention system
- explains families' rights
