| Supporting Medically Fragile Children and Their Families | This article from NAEYC explains that, "including in your program children who have experienced extensive medical procedures may seem daunting. Keep in mind that they are still children and can benefit from using play and art to express their ideas and needs, just like children who have not had major medical experiences. Working closely with a care team that includes parents (or guardians) and a child life specialist can enhance the child’s physical and mental health across settings." | Website |

| Supporting Social and Emotional Learning for Children with Disabilities | "Developing social and emotional skills are important for all young children! Making and keeping friends, solving social problems, and paying attention to emotions are key skills for children to learn during their early years. After all, social and emotional development is the foundation for lifelong learning and development. Learning these critical skills is especially important for young children with disabilities and suspected delays. Many children with disabilities may struggle with these skills, but we know successful social and emotional development leads to future positive outcomes in many different areas. This Inclusion Series [from the Office of Head Start National Center on Early Childhood Development, Teaching and Learning] webinar explores powerful individualized strategies to support social and emotional learning for children with disabilities and suspected delays." | Website |
