This book describes how professionals can use consultation to work collaboratively with others from various disciplines in inclusive settings. Consultation reflects changes in the field as specialists provide indirect rather than direct services - the consultant supports another adult rather than working with a child. The book offers practical knowledge and skills consultants need to improve the quality of programs serving young children (0-5) and to strengthen child and family outcomes. The book outlines the conceptual and philosophical framework for consultation and walks the reader through the eight stages of the consultation process. In addition, the book emphasizes involving families throughout the consultation process and identifies common barriers and supports associated with consultation.
