Facebook: Child welfare professionals and partners often work with #vulnerable #children and #youth—those who have, or are at risk of, #developmentaldisabilities or delays.

When #disabilities and #delays are caught early, steps can be taken to improve the child’s short- and long-term outcomes. Early #identification and #intervention also can reduce #familystress and ensure that #parents have the help they need to support their children effectively. Child welfare professionals and partners play an important role in this effort. To learn more, check out CBLCC's brief here:
