Abstract:
Early intervention refers to community-based programs across the state devoted to education and treatment of emotionally disturbed youth. These programs began in 1975 after the General Assembly approved $1.2 million in support. In 1981, there were programs in 21 counties offering consultation, education, and even treatment to prevent emotionally disturbed children from maturing into emotionally disturbed adults.
