Supporting Families of Children with Developmental Disabilities:
Evidence-based and Emerging Practices provides a comprehensive
review of the empirical evidence on interventions for families of
individuals - ranging from post-preschool age to adulthood - with
developmental disabilities. The book presents both narrative and
meta-analytic syntheses of a large body of research to evaluate
which interventions meet contemporary standards as evidence based
practices. The body of studies reviewed in the book has not
previously been gathered into one volume, nor evaluated as a whole
for the quality and extent of the evidence. The research is
presented in the context of contemporary social policy and
practices aimed at maximizing the development of children with
disabilities while increasing the quality of life of their
families. The criteria and procedures followed for identifying,
reviewing, evaluating, and categorizing the studies are articulated
in line with other major professional standards. Individual
chapters focus on several different schools of practice, including:
group psycho-educational interventions, behavioral parent training,
multiple component interventions, supportive interventions for
families of children with autism, home- and school-based practices,
self-help groups, and advocacy programs. Supporting Families of
Children with Developmental Disabilities is an important tool for
moving the disability field forward for future research, practice,
and social policy.
