Today in education there are many individuals that need laws that are implemented under the IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act), which is enforced by Public Law 94-142. This act implements certain plans that individuals with disabilities can use to help them with their special needs within a classroom. The Individualized Family Service Plan (IFSP), the Individualized Education Plan (IEP) and the 504 plan all have many some things in common. However there are also many differences that these three plans have.
The IFSP enforced by Public Law 99-457, is a plan that is targeted for children ages zero to two. The IFSP is created around the family’s specific concerns of their child and his or her disability. The IFSP is supposed to facilitate the development of the child and help the family to be able to develop the child too. Through the IFSP, the family and service providers work together to plan, implement and evaluate services that help the family with its concerns for their child. The services provided by the IFSP must be provided in the child’s natural environment such as their home. The IFSP should be developed within forty-five days of the referral. Once the IFSP has been implemented it must be reviewed at least every six months to help ensure that the child is on track with the current plan. The IFSP is enforced through part C of the IDEA. According to this part of the IDEA, the IFSP shall be in writing and contain statements of the family’s resources, the child’s current level of development, the major goals being attempted to achieve, the environment where the services will be provided and the projected date that the services will begin to be implemented. The area that the IFSP has in common with the 504 plan is that they both address physical and mental limitations. Also the IFSP and 504 plans prohibit discrimination in educational and employment environments that receive federal funding.
