Early Intervention in Action
Working Across Disciplines to Support Infants with Multiple Disabilities and Their Families
Edited by Deborah Chen, Ph.D., California State University, Northridge; with M. Diane Klein, Ph.D., CCC-SLP, Elise Holloway, MPH, OTR/L, Janice Myck-Wayne, Ed.D., Patricia Salcedo, M.A., & Rita Snell, M.A., R.P.T.
"Very valuable insights into best practices . . . I continue to refer back to the video clips when setting up or reviewing my practice with my students. When I share the pictures and video clips with parents, they connect to the experience of another parent, and become more willing to try various activities and strategies."
—Carole Shugard, M.A., Early Start Teacher, San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools |
