Although we work with the child and our overall goal is to help the child, that is not the only person that we interact with when providing intervention services. We must also work with the parents. In fact, with younger kids, the parent(s) may be the one that we relay the most information to. Therefore, it is very important that we include them as a part of the intervention process. The family-centered approach emphasizes collaboration with families and provides them with the tools to be able to foster their child's growth just as much as practitioners can. We also work with families to be able to focus on goals that the family deems most important. It allows us to build rapport with the families that we serve and can help encourage buy-in from the family knowing that we are listenting to and addressing their concerns.

'Yes and...' Parent Intervention
This poster and appendix are both a part of an intervention that I came up with using my experience in this program as well as my background in theater. The poster goes over the intevention, the theories behind the intervention, how it would work (including assessment and implementation), potential results and further discussion.
The appendix discusses the intervention in more detail, as well as a more readable format, and provides a 'Quick Tips' handout page for parents regarding use of the intervention. It also talks about future directions for the implementation in a reflection at the end.

Response Paper: Working with Diverse Families
This response paper talks about a chapter that we read regarding the many factors that families can face, making one family different from another and showing that we must provide individualized services. It also discusses an article by Xu (2007) and the family systems model that is proposed in the paper and provides overall relevance to providing services.
