Summary

Simply stated, meaningful IFSP meetings occur when the Team focuses on the priorities that families and other caregivers have within their daily lives. Through exploring the practical connections between the processes of intake, evaluation and assessment, and the measurement of the 3 global child outcomes, this session supports service coordinators and early interventionists in partnering with families to develop IFSPs that are:

Functional
Reflective of family strengths and priorities
Inclusive of strategies and activities that families and other caregivers can implement during their daily routines

Video, discussion, and small group activities are used to explore the IFSP planning process and to practice IFSP strategies and outcomes that work!
