Workshops/How To Work With Families

Guidelines for Practice

 

1. Parents should have the opportunity to be involved in all planning meetings related to children and their families.
2. Plan to give parents ideas that fit within the family’s daily routine.
3. Families should be the ultimate decision-makers.
4. Written plans should be easy for families to understand, and flexible enough to allow for frequent changes.
