October 14 & 15, 2009 - Albuquerque, New Mexico
The 1st RTI in Early Childhood Summit was held in Albuquerque, New Mexico on
October 14 & 15, 2009 with more than 130 practitioners, researchers,
policymakers, and higher education faculty in attendance. During the 2 day
event, all participants had opportunities to learn about what we know and what
we don’t know about RTI in Early Education. Participants had the
opportunity to find out about cutting edge work on new progress monitoring
measures and interventions that can be used in multi-tiered systems of
support, hear about programs implementing RTI, network with colleagues, and
help direct the focus of future research.
Hosted by the Center for Response to Intervention in Early Childhood (CRTIEC)
and coordinated by Sarah Mulligan and her team at the Division of Early
Childhood (DEC), this event was highlighted with excellent presentations and
provided a basis for future communication among the diverse stakeholders
interested in RTI for young children. The PowerPoint presentations included
here have been generously shared by our presenters and represent their
perspectives on this important topic.
