Like individuals, families undergo transitions. In fact, families have been described as going through stages of development that are reflected in changes in the family's role and functioning. In addition to the transitions experienced by families with children, families of children with disabilities often undergo additional transitions. The focus of this article is on the transition that families experience as they leave early intervention (EI), specifically the infant/toddler services of Part C of the Individuals With Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) to enter preschool special education (i.e., Part B services of IDEA) when their child turns 3 years of age. The purpose is to propose a family resiliency model as the framework from which EI professionals can understand the family's experience and provide appropriate supports to facilitate a smoother transition. Prior to presenting the model, a brief discussion of the transition of focus, including the legal requirements and issues that arise, is presented. (Contains 1 figure and 1 table.)
