Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Services for children with visual impairments prior to age 3 are provided according to the Individualized Family Service Plan (IFSP). The IFSP is a plan developed by a team of professionals and family members that outlines services and supports for the child and family. The IFSP process is guided by the Part C of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), which provides services for infants and toddlers with disabilities and their families. The IEP (Individualized Education Plan) is developed for school-aged children and outlines educational services and supports. A low-vision plan may be part of the IFSP or IEP, but it is not the primary plan for services for young children with visual impairments.
