Supported Child Development (South Peace)
About this resource
Supported Child Development (SCP) supports children to fully participate in inclusive community based programs. SCDP serves children from birth to age 19 who have a developmental delay or disability and require extra support. A developmental delay or disability may affect physical, cognitive, communicative, social, emotional or behavioural development
The SCDP guiding principles are:
-Inclusion-all children are supported to fully participate in neighbourhood child care programs-extra staffing when needed, i.e. support worker
-Family centered-this means that you, the parent, choose what kind of support you want
-Individual Planning-each child's unique strengths and needs are recognized and supported
-Child Development-children with developmental needs have access to early intervention and developmentally appropriate supports
-Community based-programs reflect local needs and priorities
-Respect for cultural diversity
-Training and support for parents and childcare providers
