Materials are listed alphabetically by title within topical sections. The nine sections cover: (1) general resources for parents, teachers, and community members (42 items); (2) resources for parents, day care providers, and early childhood educators (33 items); (3) resources for administrators, teachers, and support staff (59 items); (4) resources about the social aspects of inclusion (33 items); (5) information and training tools for inclusion facilitators (24 items); (6) resources that include arguments against inclusion (5 items); and (7) resources concerning legal rights and parent advocacy (46 items); (8) sources of free and inexpensive materials (9 items); and (9) bibliographies (14 items).
