Child Outcomes Measurement System
The Purpose of Washington’s Child Outcome Measurement System (COMS) is to assure stakeholders that early intervention makes a difference for infants, toddlers and families. Families are a crucial source of information about their children, and this enhances the quality of the data. The COMS is one way for families to see their child’s progress and to give input on program improvements. The data is analyzed at state and local levels to help improve services and meet federal and state reporting requirements.*
How do we know Early Intervention Services help infants, toddlers and families?
The U.S. Department of Education requires each state to report information about whether early intervention services have positive results for children and families served. This is part of the national push for accountability – the U.S. Department of Education needs to show that money spent on early intervention makes a difference. Parents and families and their early intervention team members work together to determine how the child is developing and progressing.*
