This study used the Part C data base and the Health Statistics Information System to profile North Carolina's early intervention services. The Part C sample consisted of 8,696 infants and toddlers eligible for early intervention services from 1991 to 1996. Data analysis consisted of descriptive statistics, chi-square analyses, and an examination of standardized residuals. Findings revealed that the majority (approximately 70%) of infants and toddlers were identified as having a developmental delay, with the mean age of entry into the system at approximately 17 months. Notable trends included a marked reduction in the proportion of home- and center-based services and an increase in referrals from parents. Implications are presented for program planning and evaluation, and improving information systems.
