"Inclusion" means serving children with disabilities together with children who are developing in a typical way. Here we offer some resources for programs that are working toward more inclusive practices.
- Preschool Inclusion Project of Central
New York (PIPCNY)
- Serving Children with Special Needs
in Your Child Care Facility - This manual gives information to
child care providers on including children with disabilities in their facility.
It includes the steps of setting up a collaborative inclusive program for
preschoolers, and has numerous resources that may help the process, such
as how to help staff work as a team. This booklet is slated to be updated
in the near future.

Should I, Can I? - This is a short booklet for child care providers
