Investments in early childhood have the ability to greatly improve a child’s developmental trajectory and the overall well-being of children across the country and around the world. The Act Early Initiative promotes collaboration among early childhood programs in states and territories through multiple avenues. Join Act Early State Systems Grantees, Act Early Ambassadors, and others working on this important initiative as they discuss how practices in maximizing impact, leveraging partnerships, planning for sustainability, and tailoring messaging for priority populations have improved early identification for children with ASD/DD so they can receive the services and supports they need in a timely manner.
