Sec.10-295-7. BESB Services to preschool age children

(a) The agency may cover the costs of eligible vision-related services and items for children as outlined in their IFSP, IEP (ages 3 and above) or Section 504 plan, consistent with state fee schedules from approved vendors.

(b) Children under the age of three who do not participate in the statewide Birth-to-Three System remain eligible for those BESB services that are included in the child's IFSP.

(c) BESB-eligible preschool children who turn 3 and are not eligible for an IEP may, with the approval of the Children's Services Supervisor, continue to receive consultation services from a BESB preschool TVI. These children may participate in Expanded Core Curriculum (ECC) activities sponsored by the agency. Low vision services and aids to maintain normal development may also be provided.
