Passports are essential identity documents that prove citizenship and are required for international travel. Children under 16 can apply for passports when both parents take them to apply in person at a passport acceptance agency like the post office. However, what happens if one of the child’s parents is unable to go to the post office or if a parent doesn’t want the child to have a passport? Use this guide to help navigate the passport application process for children under 16 if you are supporting a family in a state other than Massachusetts. Legal Key has created a guide specifically for Massachusetts available here.

Excerpted from Legal Problem-Solving and Flourishing: A Handbook for Perinatal and Early Childhood System-Builders

In 2022, our Early Childhood Learning Community generated Legal Problem-Solving and Flourishing: A Handbook for Perinatal and Early Childhood System-Builders, available in English on MLPB’s website. This Handbook includes ten (10) tools that can enable integration of legal problem-solving as an element of family-centered care. Here, we share the ten tools in translated form. The four sets of translated materials are geared to some language communities based in Orange County, CA; the state of Rhode Island; and Boston, MA.’

How care teams and parent leaders can promote a child’s successful transition from early intervention to special education

In Rhode Island, infants and toddlers (0-3) who are at risk for a developmental delay may qualify for Early Intervention (EI) services. In-home EI Specialists develop and follow an Individualized Family Service Plan (IFSP) that is designed to address the unique social, behavioral, and skill-based needs of the child. At age three, all children enrolled in EI are reassessed to determine whether they qualify for services through an Individualized Education Program (IEP) or a 504 Plan when they go to school (PreK-12). Use this tool to help families problem-solve during this high-stakes transition!
