This book describes early intervention practices that have emerged in countries around the world. It focuses on identifying effective practices that are working particularly well in a given country. By sharing perspectives on early intervention practices across cultures and countries, this volume addresses common challenges in early intervention and highlights unique strategies for overcoming these challenges. The chapters are grouped into four areas based on the nature of the highlighted early intervention: service delivery models, family support, personnel training, and organizational support. The book emphasizes the importance of families and including children in their communities. The introduction gives general, foundational information on early intervention, and the conclusion looks at commonalities in early intervention challenges and strategies across countries to identify practices that can be broadly applied.
