Five (9.6%) were suspected of severe-to-moderate delays, 12 (23.6%) were suspected of mild delays, and 30 of 41 (73.1%) children age-eligible to attend preschool, were not enrolled. The author, a pediatric psychologist, effectively linked a pediatric setting with an educational (Head Start) and a developmental setting, using culturally sensitive referrals, including on-the-spot, active, tangible strategies implemented by bilingual, bicultural workers. The benefits of this pediatrically based, culturally sensitive, interdisciplinary, interagency, collaborative effort are discussed. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
