Area of Science:

  • Early intervention services
  • Family-centered care
  • Disability support

Background:

  • Hawaii's early intervention system aligns with Part H principles, emphasizing family and community support for children with disabilities.
  • Since 1986, families have been integral to Hawaii's early intervention initiatives, driving policy and program development.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine Hawaii's family-centered approach to early intervention services for children under three.
  • To highlight the active role of families in shaping and accessing these services.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of Hawaii's early intervention program structure and policies.
  • Review of family involvement in decision-making, service delivery, and program governance.
  • Examination of service accessibility and family support mechanisms.

Main Results:

  • Hawaii serves a higher percentage (6%) of children under three than any other state.
  • The Individualized Family Support Plan (IFSP) prioritizes family needs and decision-making, with flexible meeting arrangements.
  • Families receive services at no cost and are compensated for advisory roles, fostering strong engagement.

Conclusions:

  • Hawaii's model demonstrates successful implementation of family-centered early intervention, with families actively participating in all aspects of service delivery.
  • The program's success is attributed to empowering families as central decision-makers and partners in their child's development.
  • This approach ensures comprehensive and responsive support for children with disabilities and their families.
