Developmental Screenings. School Readiness Coordinator, School Readiness Site Leads, and Preschool Instructors will provide comprehensive developmental and mental health screening using the Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ) system for newly enrolled children who are receiving services to ensure appropriate referral and follow-up for special needs services. Type of Measurement: Children Annual Target Quantity: 56 Start Date: July 1, 2021 Target Date: June 30, 2022 Program staff will administer the ASQs and ASQ:SEs (Social Emotional) within 60 days of entrance into the program. Program staff will work with parents to complete the age- appropriate ASQ-3 and ASQ:SE and make referrals for further assessments when scores indicate a possible developmental delay, behavioral, or mental health concern. File documentation will include the ASQ Score Summaries, including a completed record of referrals and follow up information to mandated services for special needs. The complete ASQ tool, completed by parents/guardians, should be provided to the parent/guardian after screening. The ASQ screenings should be administered to children who do not have a current Individualized Family Service Plan (IFSP) or Individualized Education Plan (IEP). Programs will complete the annual target quantity by documenting the number of children receiving ASQ screening and the number of children who enter the program with an existing IFSP or IEP, combined. F5SJ policy supports re-screening annually but not continuing to re-screen and practice a skill without a referral for children who score below the developmental screening cut-off. Staff administering the ASQ tool will receive agency based or F5SJ training prior to tool use.
