Our mission: To strengthen service systems to ensure that children with disabilities (birth through 5
years) and their families receive and benefit from high quality, culturally appropriate and family-centered supports and
services.
NECTAC is the national early childhood technical assistance center supported by the U.S. Department of Education's
Office of Special Education Programs. NECTAC serves all 50 states and 10 jurisdictions with an array of services and
supports to improve service systems and outcomes for infants, toddlers, and preschool aged children with special needs
and their families. Each state's Part C and Section 619 Program Coordinators have a
contact person at NECTAC and request
TA on behalf of their state programs. Funded since 2001, NECTAC and its predecessor TA projects have a foundation of over
thirty-five years of technical assistance excellence in early childhood services.
