Create an intervention plan for a hypothetical child, Select a disability and discuss the child and family characteristics.
You will create an intervention plan for a hypothetical child. It is recommended that you use a case study in the textbook as a starting point. Select a disability which interests you or with which you feel called to work. Use the textbook and peer-reviewed research to address the following areas in relation to the disability: etiology, prevalence, characteristics, prognosis, and social dynamics. Discuss the child and family characteristics (e.g., risk and protective factors); the specific disability chosen; research on recommended intervention approaches; and how you will work with the family to set, measure, and assess goals at the child and family level. Include the primary concerns to be addressed, justifying your choices with research. Set goals for the child, being sure to review the format requirements detailed in the document “Article: IEP Helpful Hints.”
