Thousands of children are adopted from outside the United States each year--and professionals must be ready to meet their complex needs and recognize when to refer them for assessments and services. This is the evidence-based resource professionals need to fully understand the development of children adopted from abroad, make appropriate recommendations and referrals, and choose interventions that ensure the best outcomes.

Professionals working with internationally adopted children will




recognize how the developmental milestones of internationally adopted children may differ from those of other children
increase their accuracy in referring internationally adopted children for further developmental assessments and services
understand the impact of specific issues associated with international adoption, including transitions in language and relationship development, health care, social interaction, and cultural values
discover effective intervention strategies for each developmental area
study the theoretical foundations for the development of internationally adopted children

Get in-depth, research-based chapters on 7 key aspects of development for children adopted from abroad--physical growth, health and motor development; social-emotional development; cognitive development; inhibitition, self-regulation, attention and memory development; hearing, speech and feeding development; prelinguistic, receptive and expressive language development; social communication development.

With the clear and helpful referral indicators in each chapter, it's much easier for professionals to make educated decisions about whether a child needs further assessment. And the diverse case studies and lists of key points make the book's critical takeaways easy to remember and implement.

A must-have for a wide range of professionals--including early interventionists, educators, SLPs, therapists, pediatricians, and social workers--this book is the key to appropriate services that ensure the best outcomes for children adopted from abroad.
