Interdependence: Shifting the Narrative from the Beginning
Interdependence is not a topic we hear often in Early Intervention even though it literally is founded on the concept of interdependence. The document that supports each child is called an Individualized Family Service Plan - it is literally grounded within the interdependent roles of the parents/caregivers and others who are responsible for supporting the baby or young child.
We must evolve our thinking and expand on the foundations Wilcock presents, the four dimensions of occupation - doing, being, becoming, and belonging, and now explore these concepts within all dyads and how this can influence occupational engagement.
In this episode, Danielle breakdowns what interdependence is and how we as early support providers can help shift the narrative from the beginning with voice clips of insight from Greg Boheler and Jackyln Googins from OTs for Neurodiversity.
