    The first three years are the most important building blocks of a child’s future. The Wisconsin Birth to 3 Program is an early intervention special education program. It helps children under the age of 3 who have delays or disabilities. “Early intervention” is the term used for the services and supports for babies and young children and their families.

    In Wisconsin, early intervention is known as the Birth to 3 Program. This type of program is required by the federal government under Part C of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).
