While the genesis of the Certified Child Life Specialists (CCLS) is
in the healthcare setting, the theory and practice of child life
has been successfully applied to environments outside of the
healthcare field. The interest and pursuit of child life roles in
non-healthcare settings have increasingly become of interest to
students and professionals; however, further study is required to
understand the various challenges and opportunities. The Role of
Child Life Specialists in Community Settings serves as an
innovative guide for those interested in pursuing child life in
diverse settings with the education and credentials received
through their child life certification and addresses issues the
field currently faces related to saturation of the field, burn out,
and diversity, equity, and inclusion. The book also serves as a
catalyst to push the profession as a whole beyond its current
healthcare boundaries. Covering topics such as grief, addiction,
disaster relief, and family wellbeing, this major reference work is
ideal for psychologists, medical professionals, nurses,
policymakers, government officials, researchers, scholars,
academicians, practitioners, instructors, and students.

Other to Other (O2O): Expanding successful engagement outside your
comfort zone is written from an operational perspective. The O2O
model was developed to be used with persons and contexts across a
range of races, ethnicities, gender identities, ages, abilities,
experiences, and environments. The four components of the O2O
model: knowledge, skills, personal characteristics, and motivation,
are introduced and discussed separately, with an analysis and, an
incomplete list of the many knowledge, skills, and personal
characteristics embedded in successful engagement with Other.
Although the first three components are presented in their higher
level of knowing, discussion is provided around task analysis and
scaffolding of the knowledge and skills. Motivation, the fourth
component, is discussed using the Value*Expectation*Cost theory.
This theory is described as is the motivation necessary for
successful O2O engagements. Examples applying each component in
different contexts are provided. Finally, the nonlinear,
developmental, intertwined, and dynamic aspects of the O2O model
are described.
