    Abstract: The Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement

order to be eligible for a grant under 20 U.S.C. 1433, a State shall 
provide assurance to the Secretary that the State has adopted a policy 
that appropriate early intervention services are available to all 
infants and toddlers with disabilities in the State and their families, 
including Indian infants and toddlers with disabilities and their 
families residing on a reservation geographically located in the State, 
infants and toddlers with disabilities who are homeless children and 
their families, and has in effect a statewide system that meets the 
requirements of 20 U.S.C. 1435. Information Collection 1820-0550 is 
being revised so that a State can provide assurances that it either has 
or does not have in effect policies, procedures, methods, descriptions, 
and assurances that meet the application requirements of part C of the 
Act as found in Public Law 108-446.
