Effective Strategies for Supporting Infants and Toddlers with Disabilities

Early intervention can change the entire trajectory of a child’s life, but it requires a very different approach than working with older children or adults. In the U.S., roughly 1 in 10 children under age 3 receive early intervention services, yet many more go unidentified. Of those who do receive services, about one-third later qualify for special needs preschool, underscoring the critical importance of early action.

This fast-paced, 1-hour webinar equips therapists with practical, ready-to-use strategies for supporting infants and toddlers with disabilities or developmental delays. You’ll learn how to:

  • Adapt your mindset, communication, and daily practices for the unique world of early intervention.
  • Partner effectively with families to maximize progress.
  • Navigate common challenges and get answers to frequently asked questions from early intervention professionals.

Whether you’re new to working with this age group or looking to sharpen your skills, you will walk away with actionable tools to make an immediate impact on the children and families you serve.
