Items used on the chart were drawn from a wide range of reliable development sources which are professionally recognized as appropriate for screening purposes. Funding for the production of the original Developmental Wheel came from the U.S. Department of Education, Office of the Assistant Secretary for Special Education and Rehabilitation Services, grant #H181A70048 and grant #G008530312, and Washington State Department of Social and Health Services.
