To amend the Higher Education Act of 1965 to provide for the forgiveness of Perkins loans for providers of early intervention services for individuals with disabilities.

Summary

Amends the Higher Education Act of 1965 (HEA) to revise provisions for direct loans to students in institutions of higher education (Perkins Loans) to provide for cancellation of a percentage of such loan debt on the basis of years of qualifying service as a full-time qualified provider of early intervention services for individuals with disabilities, in a public or other nonprofit program under public supervision by a lead agency under specified provisions of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). Revises the HEA provision for such debt cancellation for full-time teachers of infants, toddlers, children, or youth with disabilities to conform to the IDEA definition (the current HEA provision refers to handicapped children).
