Child Outreach is a FREE service offered to all children 3 to 5 years old by your local school district in partnership with the Rhode Island Department of Education. Child Outreach provides information about your child's development and resources that are available in your community. It can help identify children who may need further assessment, intervention and/or services at an early age to promote positive outcomes in kindergarten and beyond.
