Community-viable Family-school Partnership Intervention for Children with Social communication Deficits in Early Childhood Education (open access)

Community-viable Family-school Partnership Intervention for Children with Social communication Deficits in Early Childhood Education

Data management plan for the grant, "Community-viable Family-school Partnership Intervention for Children with Social communication Deficits in Early Childhood Education." Early Childhood Education settings provide a natural and unique access point for addressing children’s unmet needs and barriers to care. The current research uses an established implementation science framework to adapt and implement an evidence-based Family-School Partnership Intervention (FPSI) to prevent developmental delays and barriers to learning among preschoolers with social-communication delays. FSPI is implemented by regular preschool staff and integrates Evidence Based Practices from education (i.e., strategies for establishing reciprocal partnerships with parents; Developmentally Appropriate Practice; National Association for the Education of Young Children) and clinical parent coaching interventions targeting social-communication deficits in toddlers with autism (Naturalistic Developmental Behavioral Interventions).
