Family Assessment in the Early Intervention System

Description This module provides an overview to family assessment processes in Illinois' Early Intervention system. The basics of family assessment as a means for gathering information will be reviewed. Participants will understand the roles of providers, service coordinators and families within the process, will explore the impact that family assessment has on early intervention practice, and finally, will review considerations for day to day practice with children and families. Strategies for making the family assessment process a useful and engaging time with families are highlighted.
