Abstract

Child development occurs within the context of the child's family, neighborhood, and community environment. Early childhood providers support positive outcomes, not only for the children with whom they directly work with but also for their families. Families of children with developmental delays often experience unique challenges. A family resiliency framework addresses how families confronting these challenges can experience positive outcomes. Family resiliency is strengthened by protective factors, which augment outcomes for the child and the family. A family resiliency framework is described and protective factors known to strengthen family resiliency are discussed. Strategies for enhancing family protective factors through early intervention and related services are presented.
