Section 618 of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) requires that each state submit data about the children they serve. This is sometimes called “child count data” or “December 1 data” and it is used in the US Department of Education Office of Special Education Program’s Annual Report to Congress. States also submit reports about where services are delivered, the reasons families exit Birth to Three, and the results of any written complaints, mediation requests, or hearings requests.
