The National Dissemination Center for Children with
Disabilities is a great resource for all types of
information useful for a family enrolled in the New Jersey Early Intervention System. One such resource is their guide to the key
terms used in Early Intervention. They
hope “it helps readers quickly connect with the meaning of pivotal words and
phrases in the field”. The guide can be
found at http://nichcy.org/babies/keyterms. Examples of the terms explained include the following:
- Point of Reference: Part C of IDEA
- Consent
- Developmental delay
- Early intervention services
- Infant or toddler with a disability
- Multidisciplinary
- Native language
- Natural environments
- Prior written notice
- Service coordination services
