Exiting Information
Exiting status refers to whether a child was receiving Part B or Part C services at the beginning of the reporting period but left sometime before the end of the 12-month reporting period and, if so, for what reason. It also identifies if a child who has left Part C is eligible for Part B services. These tables show the cumulative total, rather than the December 1 total because children may exit anytime during the reporting period.
Most children who exited Part C were eligible for Part B (72%). The remaining were withdrawn by parents (16%), were not able to be contacted (3%), had an undetermined Part B eligibility status (2%), moved out of state (4%), completed their IFSP prior to the maximum age (1%), or died (1%).
Children exit Part B for a number of reasons. For example, they graduate, age out, transfer to regular education, drop out, or die.
