Play is central to early intervention, and building play skills often depends on how well treatment fits each child and family. In this course, Janine Benner, MA, CCC-SLP, BCS-CL, ASDCS, reviews evidence-based approaches to facilitating play skills in children with various diagnoses, using play-based, parent-mediated, culturally responsive, and neurodiversity-affirming practices in early intervention speech-language pathology.
Janine outlines the steps for providing culturally responsive services and shows how to write goals that are developmentally appropriate, strength-based, culturally responsive, and neurodiversity-affirming. She also covers evidence-based strategies for supporting play development and reviews activity ideas for a range of settings and materials.
You'll learn the benefits and steps of using a parent coaching model in play-based treatment, illustrated through case examples. Janine also shares resources for goals, activities, and materials you can use in your own practice.
