What does the Individual Family Service Plan (IFSP) focus on?

Providing early intervention services for preschool children
Establishing after-school programs for youth
Assessing adult educational needs

The correct answer is: Providing early intervention services for preschool children

The Individual Family Service Plan (IFSP) specifically focuses on providing early intervention services for preschool-aged children who have developmental delays or disabilities. The IFSP is designed to support not only the child but also their family, emphasizing the importance of a family-centered approach to intervention. This plan outlines the specific services needed to assist the child’s development and typically includes individualized goals, the types of services to be provided, and the frequency and duration of those services. The emphasis is on early intervention during critical developmental years, making it a key component in addressing developmental concerns at a young age. It encompasses various supports for families to help them aid their child's growth effectively. Other options, while related to education or support in various contexts, do not align with the specific focus and intent of the IFSP, which is dedicated to preschool children and their families in the context of early intervention services.
