Child Find is an effort by the Ohio Department of Education, Office for Exceptional Children, to ensure all children from birth to 21 with disabilities are identified, located, and evaluated as required by the individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act of 2004. 

Ohio school districts, serving ages 3-21, work with Help Me Grow, serving children birth to 2, in order to locate individuals with disabilities.
