The Early Childhood Special Education/Early Intervention program equips graduates to support infants, toddlers, and preschoolers with developmental challenges and their families. For children from birth to age three, home-based early intervention services focus on family-centered care. Multidisciplinary teams collaborate with parents and young children to promote developmental growth and participation in daily family life. Preschool special educators serve in inclusive or specialized settings as lead teachers, co-teachers, or traveling specialists, partnering with general education teachers and families to deliver tailored instruction that helps children with special needs thrive within standard preschool programs and activities.
