Purpose and Project Overview

TATS is a statewide project which supports programs serving prekindergarten children with disabilities by providing technical assistance and training. This support promotes high quality programs leading to positive outcomes for children and their families. Primary recipients of services are coordinators for programs serving prekindergarten (Pre-K) children with disabilities in each of Florida's 67 school districts. TATS also works with school district early childhood partners such as Head Start, community child care programs, Early Learning Coalitions which oversee Voluntary Prekindergarten (VPK) programs, and Early Steps.

The project is based at the University of Central Florida, with staff providing technical assistance and training in nine regions throughout the state. A transition consultant from Florida’s Transition Project (a project within TATS) works with the facilitators to provide statewide TA and training on the transition process.

The TATS State Advisory Board ensures participation, coordination, and collaboration with other early childhood stakeholders in the state.
