Abstract	In 1985-1986, the mission of Connecticut's Committee on Four-Year-Olds, Their Families, and the Public Schools was to develop strategies to alleviate structural and systematic problems that could diminish the success of expanded early intervention efforts in the state. This report of the yearlong effort begins with a review of the committee's work in 1984-1985. A description of the committee's mission and organizational structure follows. Work of the committee is described in terms of problems that need analysis and problems that are ready for action. Problems needing analysis include: (1) the establishment of early childhood demonstration programs throughout the state; (2) an assessment of training and technical assistance capacities and needs; (3) credentialing; and (4) effective strategies for promoting home-school communications. Problems ready for action are public information and advocacy, interagency collaboration, and the development of an early childhood data base. The report concludes with a synopsis of recommendations directed to the State Department of Education in conjunction with other agencies serving young children and their families. Appended are facts and principles of the 1984-1985 report, lists of committee membership and contract consultants, the model employer report, the training and technical assistance report, and, extensively, plans for credentialing-retraining and home-school linkage.
