Targets: Description of Stakeholder Input
Stakeholder input was gathered from several sources. Proposed targets were reviewed with Illinois Interagency Council on Early Intervention (IICEI) members. The target-setting guide from DaSy was used to support these discussions. Stakeholders commented on the challenge of setting rigorous yet achievable targets given the recent impact of the pandemic but lauded the Bureau's transparency with sharing the data for informed decision-making.

Provide reasons for slippage, if applicable
Similar to Indicator 5, the loss of the general population in Illinois continues including children under the age of three. Various initiatives are in process to help engage the birth to three population in efforts to increase participation in early childhood services but the affects of the loss of population and the pandemic continue to impact the desired increase. Federal funds are being used to support widespread marketing efforts which should increase general public awareness. In addition, expanded marketing to families, using multiple languages, and to Primary Referral sources is beginning soon.
