This presentation by Lindy Buch and Gary Schafer, held on May 9, 2008, provides an in-depth look at the budgeting practices and fiscal responsibilities of Michigan's Early On program. It covers the distribution of funds across 57 Intermediate School Districts (ISDs), outlines federal requirements, and outlines key services such as Child Find, public awareness, and personnel development. The MICC is keen on improving fiscal management and will explore a motion to establish a Budget Committee for careful allocation of federal funds and revising funding formulas for ISDs.
