About the Author
Linda Wollesen has focused her 35-year career on public health nursing and collaborative community-based services to low-income and ethnically diverse families. She worked as a nursing visitor in housing projects in East Los Angeles, nursing supervisor in Santa Clara, and program manager in Santa Cruz County, all in California. Her clinical expertise includes services and care coordination for children and infants who have special needs or who are in foster care. Most recently, she supervised a research replication site for the David Olds Nurse-Family Partnership in Monterey County. In adddition to earning a bachelor's degree in Nursing from California State University at Los Angeles, Ms. Wollesen received her master's degree in marriage, family, and child counseling from the University of Santa Clara and is a licensed therapist.
Ms. Wollesen is the author of the Life Skills Progression(TM) (LSP) instrument and pioneered the reliability and content work for the tool with the support of a fellowship from ZERO TO THREE: National Center for Infants, Toddlers and Families. She is currently the director for Life Skill Outcomes, LLC, which provides LSP training and best practice consultation and developed an LSP database for use by programs using the LSP. She conducts training nationally in the areas of maternal/child outcome data management and clinically for reflective function and other best practice interventions.
Karen Peifer, Ph.D., M.P.H., RN, became the program evaluation coordinator for the San Mateo County Prenatal To Three Initiative soon after finishing her doctorate in public health from the University of California at Berkeley. The Prenatal To Three Initiative is one of the premier multidisciplinary home visitation programs in the state of California that serves high- and moderate-risk low-income families. She directed and coordinated the evaluation efforts of this program. It is from this experience that she started working with Linda Wollesen on the Life Skills Progression (LSP) instrument and the writing of this book. She has taught nursing students at San Jose State University and has taught research methods to students in its Justice Studies Department. Currently, she is teaching graduate student nurses at the University of Colorado in Denver. Her research interests continue to be the social and emotional development of young children and the advancement of nursing in the field of infant mental health.
