Early On® Michigan
When a baby is born, every parent hopes that he/she will have a healthy baby. Sometimes, however, things don't go as planned. The baby may be ill or may seem slow in doing things such as smiling, sitting up or speaking. If you have a concern about a baby's health or development, Early On serves infants and toddlers from birth to 36 months with developmental delay or conditions that could lead to such delay. It has been well established that early intervention is an effective way to prevent or reduce problems for children at a later age. Call 1-800-EarlyOn (1-800-327-5966) to confidentially discuss concerns. Early On specializes in evaluating and treating children that are not developing at the same rate as other children. This can include physical, mental, communication, adaptive, social or emotional development. Early On is offered by the Michigan Departments of Education, Community Health and Human Services. For more information about Early On, please go to www.1800earlyon.org.

The State Board of Education (SBE) approved revisions to several documents on March 12, 2013. New language for the Early Childhood Standards of Quality for Infant and Toddler Programs (ECSQ-IT), Early Childhood Standards of Quality for Prekindergarten (ECSQ-PK), and the Michigan Out-of-School Time (MOST) Standards of Quality can be found here. While changes to the documents are incorporated into these versions, the complete documents, including guidance for practitioners, content that did not change, formatting, and graphics are not yet available.
