The sponsor's argument

Why Shelley Mayer says this is needed

All children aged birth through three with developmental delays and disabilities have a right to appropriate interventions, known as early intervention, under federal law.1 This federal mandate recognizes that when services are available early and on time, young children are more likely to develop to their full potential, and less likely to need intensive special education services later in life. Over 40,000 chil- dren throughout the state are currently provided services as a preschool child with a disability through New York State approved 4410/preschool programs and agencies. An additional 8,200 infants from birth through age 2 are served through the Early Intervention System. School psychol- ogists are an important part of the provider community serving these children, but their authorization to provide EI services expires April 1, 2025. This bill extends authorization for school psychologists to provide EI services through June 30, 2026.

This is the sponsor's own case for the bill, quoted from their memorandum. It is not Agora's description of what the bill does.
