Children in Dual Language Environments: How can Early Intervention support their learning?

Description

Many children in our service area live in dual language homes. There are often questions that parents and early intervention providers often have about the impact of learning two languages at the same time. In this workshop Dr. Nelson will share information about what supports dual language learning meaningfully and answer many of the common questions about how children "manage" the experience and how to support care-givers and early intervention services to support the best outcomes.
