Summary: This project is based on using Skype to deliver early intervention services. Early intervention services are services that are tailored to serve the needs of children with disabilities or who are at risk and their families. Through Skype, the early interventionist can check on the child's progress, consult with the family, and teach the parents how to fulfill the child's needs. For example, if the child has communication impairments, the early interventionist would suggest to the parent that he/she talks to the child about the daily routines. Using Skype to deliver services is a great alternative for home-visits in emergency cases and also as a progress check-up method. Furthermore, it provides families living in rural areas with the same opportunities and services.
