title: Searchline: a computerized directory of services.
abstract: Families of high-risk or handicapped young children (0-5 years) often require the services of multiple community agencies. SearchLine, a computerized directory of community services, was developed by Project IINTACT to assist parents and professionals in locating an accessing appropriate resources. Educational, health, and social service agencies that provide services to families as well as to children are included in the data base. Individualized family/child needs for specific services are accommodated by SearchLine because it allows descriptors that are related to language, handicapping condition, services desired, and the child's age to be considered together by the computer when it generates a list of appropriate community resources.
