Extractions: Child Development Assessment Overview for Children Living in Manitoba Routine monitoring of a child's developmental progress in conjunction with preventative primary care, also known as developmental surveillance, has been recommended by a number of professional bodies such as the American Academy of Pediatrics and the British Joint Working Party on Child Health Surveillance (Dworkin PH, Pediatrics 1989; 84:1000-1010). Prompt detection of developmental problems can lead to early intervention for those conditions where definitive therapies are available. Even in conditions where specific interventions do not exist, early intervention can improve children's outcomes and assist families in accessing appropriate resources. Primary care physicians are in an excellent position to monitor children's progress and refer those children felt to be at risk of developmental problems for further comprehensive evaluation. The goal of developmental surveillance is to identify children who may have a disability or be at risk of disability so that diagnostic assessment and services can be provided in a timely fashion.

The partnerships are composed of university-based researchers and state- and city-level agencies responsible for child care services, including subsidies and resource and referral.

To supplement your brigade ethnic community strategy, you may find it helpful to make full use of Year Planner events such as 'No Smoking Day' and 'Child Safety Week'. As well as addressing the wider community concerns, these occasions provide an important and relevant link to fire risk and community safety awareness. In the same way, doctors' surgeries, mother and baby clinics, district nurses and other care agencies will be closely involved with all sections of the community, through health improvement programmes and other local partnerships. Brigades should explore opportunities to present and promote fire safety messages through these outlets. The NCFSC supports national developments that have a strong local influence. Child care provides a particularly important opportunity to increase safety awareness. Current initiatives include the DETR/Child Accident Prevention Trust
Connecticut Head Start State Collaboration Office continues to work closely with Healthy child care Connecticut around and mental health in early care settings. along with state Head Start associations and the http://www.headstart.state.ct.us/hsinfo_1_new.htm
Extractions: The Connecticut Head Start State Collaboration Office (HSSCO) was established in 1996 through a grant under the federal Head Start Act. There are 52 Head Start State Collaboration Offices, one in every state as well as in the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. The purpose of the Head Start State Collaboration initiative, as outlined in federal legislation, is to integrate the lessons learned from Head Start, the nation's 35-year-old early childhood laboratory, and the services of local Head Start programs with state efforts in early care and education. State collaboration offices have eight priority areas that guide them in their work with states. These include health, child care, education, literacy, welfare reform, national service, homelessness, and children with special needs. Special efforts are made to establish collaborative Head Start - child care initiatives at the state and local levels, In all of the priority areas, state collaboration offices work very closely with their state Head Start Association to achieve mutual goals. In Connecticut, the initial work of the HSSCO, under the name of the Governor's Collaboration for Young Children, involved the development of a strategic plan that resulted from the work of more than 300 individuals who participated on a Coordinating Council, a Parent Council, a Steering Committee and 5 work groups, including Healthy Child Care Connecticut. The Priorities and Plan for Action was published and widely disseminated in the fall of 1998. Also that year, the HSSCO facilitated statewide forums on services for infants and toddlers and on school-age child care and secured supplemental funds to support infant- toddler services planning at the local level.
