Abstract | The Child Development Institute, a nonprofit early intervention program in California, conducted a needs assessment which revealed a community that was receiving little support for infants and toddlers. There was virtually no enrollment in Part C early intervention services despite ranking high on environmental risk factors. This article describes how a project engaged parents in common community settings such as shopping areas, local events, and a farmers' market to screen infants and toddlers for disabilities. Families became familiar with the ongoing screening activities and took advantage of the opportunity to talk about their child's development while their children played. Child care providers were recruited to administer regular developmental screening to children in their care and to continue the dialogue with parents regarding their children's development. (As Provided). |
