Bill > A03262

This bill amends the New York Public Health Law to increase funding for early intervention services by 11 percent for the 2025 fiscal year. Specifically, the bill modifies an existing section of law that previously set the gross statewide amount for early intervention services at $40 million, now proposing to increase that amount by 11 percent for the 2025 fiscal year. Early intervention services typically refer to specialized support programs designed to help children with developmental delays or disabilities receive timely assistance during their critical early years. The bill will take effect immediately, but the amendment to the funding provision is designed to align with the existing expiration of the related section of law. This targeted increase in funding aims to enhance support for young children who may require additional developmental services and support.
