Volume Title: Including Infants and Toddlers with Disabilities

Session: Just Do It

Video Description

This video includes numerous examples of adaptations and accommodations that family members, early care and education, and early intervention service providers have made in order to ensure that children with significant disabilities can fully participate in natural environments. The examples show adults making specialized adaptations and accommodations in outdoor settings, during center routines, and during home visits. This video is designed to be shown in three segments. Just Do It was developed for SpecialQuest in 2000.
