Synopsis:

Beginning with a review of the ecological and sociopolitical factors that influence a child's world, the authors scrutinize typical early intervention environments such as homes, child care centers, and public schools. Based on their collective observations, they proceed to explore the influence that familial, economic, and cultural systems have on program outcomes.
Its illustrative case studies and historical perspective make this text ideal for in-service use. Scholarly as well as practical, Contexts of Early Intervention is an important professional development tool for improving early intervention programming today and envisioning a model system of service provision for tomorrow.
