CHAPTER 21 CARING FOR SPECIAL NEEDS CHILDREN

INTRODUCTION  Each child develops differently; therefore their abilities are different.  Some children may be developmentally ahead, and some may lag behind.  Some may require extra attention.  Therefore, providers must be sensitive when responding to the needs of children, and planning activities so all children can participate to the best of their abilities.

DEFINING SPECIAL NEEDS  Refers to circumstances that cause a child’s physical, cognitive, and behavioral development to vary from what’s considered normal  Treat them as children first and as people with disabilities second. They have the same basic need to be loved, accepted, and respected.  They require a secure, nurturing, and stimulating environment.

LAWS AND THE DISABLED  To help parents, care providers, and other advocates ensure that children with disabilities have their needs met, certain laws were developed to ensure that their needs are met, and that they receive a free and appropriate education.

LAWS AND THE DISABLED Individuals with Disabilities Act (IDEA)  Guarantees free special education and related services (speech, physical, or occupational therapy to all children 3-21 yrs. Old. An IEP is developed to make sure the educational needs are met.  Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)  Civil rights law prohibiting discrimination due to disability of public services, employment, or accommodations.
