Abstract
Generalizations about the differences between more developed and less developed countries in terms of service provision for people with disabilities sometimes tend to obscure the differences that exist between and within countries. Intervention is a relatively new concern for many countries in the Pacific region but one of the most notable features is the variation in approaches taken to meet the needs of young children with a disability and their families. Diverse cultural patterns and geographical problems of isolated communities require a flexible approach to the delivery of services. Initiatives which arise out of existing frameworks require support with careful consideration being given to extending the services until they reach all sections of the population. Ensuring sustainability is a high priority where resources and Government involvement in service provision are limited.
