Mind the Gap: Strategies to Bridge the Research-to-Practice Divide in Early Intervention Caregiver Coaching Practices
Romano, Mollie; Schnurr, Melissa
Topics in Early Childhood Special Education, v42 n1 p64-76 May 2022
While caregiver coaching approaches in early intervention have a comprehensive literature base, the field continues to experience a research-to-practice gap in the implementation of capacity-building coaching approaches. We examined the caregiver coaching divide and identified strategies for researchers and Part C programs to bridge the gap so that all families benefit from a capacity-building approach during this critical developmental period of the child's life. Using available evidence and implementation science frameworks, we suggest five actionable strategies for research and practice teams.
