We compared growth in Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test between children with disabilities and children without disabilities in Educare Central Maine, a highly resourced data-driven Birth-5 early care and education program that targets children at risk of school failure because of socioeconomic factors. Children with disabilities made up 13% of enrollment. Children with disabilities tended to catch up with their typically developing children as they spent more time in Educare.Back to Session: Poster Symposium: Early Intervention/Early Childhood
