Services Brochure
- clude in the brochure, an idea for an additional program or a way to improve a current program in order to better meet the goal of providing quality early interventions services for pregnant women, infants, toddlers, and/or their families.
* Though The Guidance Center is a real organization, this scenario has been created only for this course. The brochure you create is intended only to further your own knowledge of early intervention services and not to be used for distribution.
To complete this Application Assignment, do the following:
Step 1: Learn About Infant-Toddler Services at The Guidance Center
Click on the link below for the “Early Childhood Services” overview page on The Guidance Center Inc. Web site:
http://guidancectr.org/our-services/
From the “Early Childhood Services” menu on the left of the page, click on and read about the Infant-Toddler Services programs. You may also choose to visit the Elizabeth Peabody House web site for further information. Be sure to refer to the Home Visiting section located under the Resources tab.
Step 2: Create The Guidance Center Infant-Toddler Services Brochure
Use the information you have learned about the Infant-Toddler Services to create a draft of a two-page brochure. Make sure your brochure includes:
- A strong rationale and foundational understanding of why early intervention is important.
- An overview of the ways The Guidance Center programs support early intervention.
- Based on what you learned while getting your degree in child development, a description of a new program The Guidance Center will be offering or a way that one of the current programs has been approved to offer even more effective services.
As you write, keep these tips in mind:
- Think about how to present the information in ways that are professional and, at the same time, capture attention.
- Think about how the brochure can help assure infant-toddler program directors and caregivers that families they refer will feel comfortable and respected, i.e., consider ways that The Guidance Center is sensitive to different cultures within the community.
