The Early Childhood Outcomes Center (ECO Center) is funded by the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP) to support State agencies responsible for preschool special education (Section 619 of IDEA) and early intervention (Part C of IDEA) as they develop and implement child outcome measures for infants, toddlers, and young children with disabilities.  Through the ECO Center’s work with states, the project has developed “Instrument Crosswalks” to describe how commonly used early childhood development assessment tools align with the outcome measures required for State Performance Plan reporting to OSEP. This link offers Disabilities Specialists and other administrators a broad overview of how commonly used early childhood assessment tools provide data States may use to measure and report outcomes for children with disabilities.
