The rate of all aspects of development is the fastest in the first years of a child’s life. This holds true for all children, whether they develop in a typical or in a different way or whether they are vulnerable to impaired development.
The primary goal of our conference is to examine whether we are actually doing all we can to assist children in need of early intervention during the first and most formative period of their lives. We intend to explore international experience and research results, present domestic and special regional practices along with specifically Hungarian forms of therapy. We want to follow the process of early childhood intervention from diagnosis and screening all the way to actual treatment, taking into consideration the perspectives of both parents and professionals. We also eant to look at different aspects of early intervention teamwork and the partnership between parents and professionals.
