CDC/ICDL Collaboration Report on a Framework for Early Identification and Preventive Intervention of Emotional and Developmental Challenges,November 2006

By the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Interdisciplinary Council on Developmental and Learning Disorders (ICDL) Work Group on Early Identification and Preventive Intervention:

José Cordero, M.D., M.P.H., Stanley I. Greenspan, M.D., Margaret L. Bauman, M.D., T. Berry Brazelton, M.D., Geraldine Dawson, Ph.D., Barbara Dunbar, Ph.D., Peter C. Mundy, Ph.D., Ruth Perou, Ph.D.,Keith G. Scott, Ph.D., Stuart G. Shanker, D.Phil., and Ruth E. K. Stein, M.D.

The framework presents newly formulated indicators to identify at-risk children in the first and second years of life, components for a comprehensive evaluation of infants and children determined to be at risk, and essential elements of a successful early intervention program for ASD and other developmental disorders. The CDC-ICDL framework is based on current understanding of healthy developmental patterns and is designed to detect all possible deviations from those patterns. It uses risk indicators designed to detect a lack of mastery of age-expected emotional, social, and cognitive milestones during a child’s first 2 years of life.

Children and Babies with Mood Swings: New Insights for Parents and Professionals

By Stanley I. Greenspan, MD (Author), Ira Glovinsky, PhD (Author), Cindy Glovinsky, MSW (Author)

Addressing the challenges of living with a child whose moods are extreme and unpredictable, this book transcends traditional tendencies and diagnoses by discussing mood swings in terms of how they develop, instead of presenting the reader with the usual list of symptoms and treatments. The complex interplay between children's emotional states and the various developmental milestones that lie along the pathway to adulthood are described, offering hope to parents by giving them a whole new way of looking at an old problem that paradoxically seems to be increasing in modern times.

Floortime DVD Training Series

Floortime DVD Training Series
Meant to supplement the child's work with professionals, the Floortime DVD Training Series shows parents how to use the Floortime approach to help their child relate and communicate. The series was developed by acclaimed child development experts Stanley I. Greenspan MD and Serena Wieder, PhD, creators of the DIR® approach for children with autism and other special needs. The method, known more familiarly as Floortime, encourages parents to get down on the floor with their child, following his lead and natural interests in play, entering his world to help him connect with others.

The Floortime DVD Training series, presented by the Floortime Foundation on behalf of the Interdisciplinary Council on Developmental and Learning Disorders (ICDL), is available in three DVD sets, each at $79.95.

The first set, "The Basics: Relating and Communicating," shows parents how to interact with their child to support his development, from shared attention and engagement to interaction and more advanced communication.
The second set, "Sensory Regulation and Social Interaction," shows parents how to help a child overcome challenges of sensory regulation that interfere with his ability to relate and communicate, enabling him to reach higher developmental levels, including social interaction and pretend play.
The third set, "Symbolic and Logical Thinking," shows parents how to use pretend play to help their child create and connect ideas, and to think logically.

Each DVD set features interviews of Drs. Greenspan and Wieder; video of them working with individual children and their parents to demonstrate how to put Floortime principles into action; and a supplementary guide with transcripts, information about the Floortime approach and a parent questionnaire.

Clinical Practice Guidelines: Redefining the Standards of Care for Infants, Children, and Families with Special Needs

Clinical Practice Guidelines:
Redefining the Standards of Care for
Infants, Children, and Families with
Special Needs Increasing numbers of young children are presenting with non-progressive developmental disorders involving compromises in the capacity to relate, communicate, and think. These disorders involve many different areas of developmental functioning, ranging from planning motor actions and comprehending sounds to generating ideas and reflecting on feelings. New research and clinical observations are making it possible to more fully identify these functional developmental capacities and, thereby, characterize each child and family according to their unique profile. Most important, these new observations enable clinicians to individualize assessment and intervention approaches in response to the child- and family-specific question, "WHAT IS THE BEST APPROACH FOR A GIVEN CHILD AND FAMILY?"

Over the years, the disciplines that work with developmental disorders have constructed a large body of research and clinical experience on the functional developmental capacities that are impaired in disorders of relating, thinking and communicating. This knowledge, however, needed to be brought together and organized. In response to this need, The Interdisciplinary Council on Developmental and Learning Disorders (ICDL) launched an initiative to systematize current clinical knowledge, including both research and the clinical experience of disciplines such as speech pathology, developmental pediatrics, neurology, occupational and physical therapy, psychology, social work, special education, and child psychiatry. The result of this effort is the ICDL CLINICAL PRACTICE GUIDELINES.

To promote the widest possible use of the Clinical Practice Guidelines for the benefit of infants, children, and families with special needs, any information from this volume may be downloaded and disseminated without charge.

The Functional Emotional Assessment Scale (FEAS)

For Infancy and Early Childhood: Clinical and Research Applications. By Stanley I. Greenspan, M.D., Georgia DeGangi, Ph.D., OTR & Serena Wieder, Ph.D. A systematic in depth approach to assessing emotional functioning during infancy and early childhood. It enables clinicians, educators and caregivers to assess the child's functional, emotional, developmental level and create a treatment plan based on the child's individual profile and measure their progress. The FEAS not only delineates the emotional functioning of the infant and child but captures the richness of the interactions between the child and his or her caregivers.
