Supported Child Development (South Peace)
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
