Practical Study for Developing a Support System for Preschool-aged Handicapped Children and Their Families in an area where Less Social Resources

如果没有社区康复的概念，就很难在社会资源较少的地区规划为残疾学龄前婴儿及其家庭建立支助系统。这项研究的目的是试图为父母、孩子和志愿者制定一揽子支持计划。这项研究特别关注1.5岁到5岁的婴儿。经过4年的实践，从家长的评价、幼儿的行为变化、志愿者的知识量等方面来看，我们开发的项目非常有效。

It will be very difficult to plan to build up a support system for preschool-aged infant with disabilities and their families in an area of less social resources without idea of community-based rehabilitation. The purpose of the study was trying to develop a package of support programs, such as for parents, for children and for volunteers. Especially this study focuses on infants the age 1.5 to age 5. After four year trails, the programs we developed were very effective judging from the date of evaluation by parents, behavioral changes of infants, and increased amount of knowledge of volunteers.
