Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (eBook, ePUB)

A Roadmap for Families and Professionals
Redaktion: Nelson Goff, Briana S.; Springer, Nicole Piland

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities provides a unique contribution not currently available in the professional literature by addressing the experiences and perspectives of families living with or raising a child with a disability. Designed for family therapists, social workers, and other helping professionals, it provides empirically-based, practical information for working with families experiencing intellectual and developmental disabilities of a loved one. This book also provides important information for navigating the various professional systems of care with which these families interface: health care providers, early childhood intervention teams, educational systems, the legal system, and financial planners.
