Abstract(s)
A Intervenção Precoce dirige-se às famílias e às crianças.
Deverá, portanto, preocupar-se com os aspectos
ligados à promoção do desenvolvimento da criança,
assim como com o apoio global à família. Na perspectiva
ecossistémica, que hoje se defende, estas respostas
deverão ser integradas e inserir-se nos contextos
de vida das famílias.
Pôr em prática este tipo de abordagem não é fácil e
mesmo em países como os Estados Unidos, se reconhece
a existência de uma discrepância entre as práticas
ideais dos profissionais e as suas práticas reais (Bailey,
1994).
E em Portugal, o que se passa? Sobre isto tentámos
deixar algumas pistas com base em alguns dados empíricos.
Early intervention is aimed at families and children. It must therefore promote the development of the child, as well as provide global support to the family. According to the ecosystemic perspective, these concerns must be integrated in the life contexts of families. Putting these types of approaches in practice is not easy and even in countries such as the United States of America studies have identified discrepancies between professionals’ perceptions of what are ideal practices and their real practices (Bailey, 1994). And in Portugal, what is happening? Using empirical data, we will discuss and characterise the current situation of early intervention in Portugal.
