Enhancing Services for Infants and Toddlers with Special Needs: Enhancing Parent/Caregiver Involvement
in Early Intervention (PM)

One of the major initiatives of current legislation designed to meet the needs of children with special needs is the degree to which the family is recognized as critical to the success of intervention activities. This session will review the concepts of attachment, and how to enhance caregiver involvement in early intervention. A variety of specific clinical examples will be provided as family issues are discussed, with participant involvement encouraged.

About

Funded with a grant from the Early Childhood Investment Corporation of the State of Michigan and the Kellogg Foundation, our project began in April of 2006. The goal of the project is to form multiple collaborative bodies in the state to begin development of a comprehensive system of early childhood care and education for 0-5 year olds and their families. This system is similar to the Smart Start system of North Carolina and the state of Michigan is receiving technical assistance in our efforts from the state of North Carolina.
