Background:

  • Early intervention services for children aged birth to three prioritize a family-centered approach.
  • Eligibility is determined by a multidisciplinary assessment, leading to an Individualized Family Service Plan (IFSP) developed with family input.

Observation:

  • Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) may need new competencies to function effectively within multidisciplinary early intervention teams.
  • Creative service delivery models are essential for providing effective support to young children with developmental delays.

Findings:
