Infants and Toddlers (birth to three years of age who have):

• A 25% delay or a standard score of 1.5 standard deviations below the mean.  This equals a standard score of 78 or below on most educational or developmental tests.
• A specialist’s determination that there is a delay even though it doesn't show up on the assessment (called informed clinical opinion);
• Known physical or mental conditions which have a high probability for developmental delays

• Under three and one half (3 ½) pounds (birth weight);
• Cared for in neonatal intensive care units;
• Born to chemically dependent mothers;
• Seriously abused or neglected;
• Confirmed to have dangerous levels of lead poisoning
