Family Functioning: Understanding Families and Helping Them Cope. Grow to 5 Module L.
Katz, Lynne
This module is one of 13 in the "Grow to 5" series, which is a revised and updated version of Florida's "Model of Interdisciplinary Training for Children with Handicaps (MITCH)." This 3-hour module focuses on training educators and other service providers in principles of family functioning and coping with stress. The module begins with presentation guidelines including: the goals and objectives of the module, a list of equipment and supplies needed for training, a list of other recommended instructors, a list of other resources that may enhance the presentation, and material needed for any special activities. This section is followed by a training script divided into 3 1-hour blocks, appendixes, and a list of references. Appendices include reproducible forms, reproducible handouts (in English and Spanish), and an optional 6-week follow-up activity (in both English and Spanish). (Contains 24 references.) (DB)
