Abstract
The term family-centered early intervention refers to both a philosophy of care and a set of practices. Both have been used to guide research, training, and service delivery for well over a decade. Unfortunately, though, the universal adoption of family-centered values and practice in early intervention is problematic for a number of reasons. This article will discuss these reasons in the context of the current state of early intervention and provide recommendations for the new millennium.Keywords
