Solution-Focused Assumptions That Support Family-Centered Early Intervention.

Andrews, James R.; Andrews, Mary A.

Infants and Young Children, v8 n1 p60-67 Jul 1995

This article discusses four solution-focused assumptions in providing early intervention services to children with speech-language disabilities and their families. These assumptions are: a polyocular perspective promotes successful family participation in treatment, a family's story contains resources for change, successful experiences promote enablement, and change is always occurring.
