Early intervention practices around the world

"Early Intervention Practices Around the World spotlights effective practices at work in 13 countries. Readers will learn about innovations in four areas: service delivery models, family support, professional development, and organizational support. Each chapter looks at early intervention in one country, discussing the social, political, and economic contexts, describing the challenges and successes in implementing early intervention practices, and providing recommendations on how others can apply the lessons learned. With this broad international look at early intervention, early childhood professionals will expand their knowledge of the issues other cultures face and get the creative strategies they need to improve their own practice."--BOOK JACKET.
