| Summary: | Project TIE (Teams in Early Intervention) was conceptualized to meet the need for: (1) involvement of formerly "ancillary" service professionals in early intervention for children with disabilities, (2) high quality family-centered services, and (3) training in the team approach. The project provides training to four groups that might constitute an early intervention team--speech/language pathologists, motor therapists, health care professionals, and family members. This training module emphasizes the importance of the family as the basis in delivering early intervention services. The first section, "Pathways to Teaming," outlines reasons for consulting with families; presents a framework for effective communication; emphasizes the importance of viewing the child from a holistic perspective and taking time to build a relationship between family and professional; and offers family-centered principles for speech/language pathologists, occupational/physical therapists, and health care professionals. The second section, "A Framework for Early Intervention," points out the need to determine what other team members want from families and offers a mechanism whereby family expertise can be applied to the Performance Competence Model to determine how children interact with their environment. Five handouts and overheads are appended. (JDD) |
