This plan is facilitated by a Parent Educator from the Georgetown University Center for Child and Human Development as part of the District of Columbia’s Developmental Disabilities Administration Health Initiative Project. The broader mission of GU CCHD is to advance self-determination among the diversity of people with developmental and other disabilities and their families, throughout the life course, and advocate for their full participation in all aspects of community life. Parent training sessions are provided one to two times per week (approximately 90 minutes per session) depending on assessed skill development needs and focus on direct teaching of new skills, creating adaptive environments that support parenting, modelling desired skills, mentoring parents, and monitoring acquired skills. Each skill is assessed at the beginning of the training component and quarterly thereafter and are based on each parent’s assessed need in relation to the developmental needs of each child. Skills are measured on a scale from 1 to 10, with 1 indicating minimal demonstration of skill and knowledge and 10 indicating mastery of the skill (e.g., can demonstrate the skill with supports as described). Note that not all the sample core skill areas included in this sample would be identified for any single parent, but are included for illustrative purposes. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Target skill not observed. Requires full assistance. Target skill occurs with frequent assistance. Target skill occurs with occasional assistance. Target skill occurs with intermittent assistance. Target skill occurs with infrequent assistance. Target skill completed without assistance.
