Parents are not always informed of the developmental milestones for their children, leaving many to wonder what the appropriate behavior and aptitude is for children of their child’s age. Early childhood educators can often assist parents by providing a list of resources that provide the additional information and support they need. To be ready to provide this information, educators need to keep current regarding available resources.
Identify five Southern California and/or national professional or educational organizations that address the needs of children ages Birth-Pre-K in educational settings that you could share with other early childhood teachers and staff. Organizations identified should have websites with credible, current, and useful information regarding integrating legal, ethical, and policy issues related to educational, developmental, and medical services for infants and young children and their families into their teaching practice. At least two of these organizations should focus on the needs of individuals with exceptionalities.
Include and Describe the following for each resource identified:
Organization Information: Include name, website address, headquarters location, and date established.
Services: What services does the organization provide (i.e., educational, development, medical services)? Who is the target audience? Explain the legal or historical basis for the organization’s formation or the offering of these particular services.
Mission and Philosophy: What is the mission and philosophy of the organization? Identify the philosophical foundation of the organization that motivates them to provide their services.
Hierarchical Structure: What is the hierarchical structure of the organization?
Funding and Status: How is the organization funded? Is the organization under for- or non-profit status?
