      ab: The writers present an overview of the definition and identification of developmental disabilities and discuss the role of challenges to social work in early intervention. Although social workers' awareness of, and involvement in, family-centered early intervention for infants and toddlers at risk of, or with, developmental disabilities has increased considerably since 1985, personnel often enter early intervention practice lacking formal preparation in handling such cases. There is a lack of early intervention curricula in social work programs. In addition, despite a move toward adopting a family-strengths orientation, there is little evidence that social work curricula have shifted from a family-pathology to a family-strengths orientation. A multimethod approach to providing personnel with at least a requisite baseline knowledge of and skills for supporting these young children and their families is recommended.
