Abstract

SpecialCare training is a model of training for home- and center-based child care providers. It fosters collaboration between caregivers and early intervention and early childhood special education personnel to support successful placement of children with disabilities in inclusive child care settings. The SpecialCare model of training offers a six-unit, 8-hour curriculum, trainer's manual, and supporting materials that are used to provide SpecialCare training to home- and center-based child care providers. Model efficacy data provide strong evidence that training results in increased knowledge about and comfort with caring for children with disabilities and expanded placement options for children with disabilities.
