Haring, Kathryn A.; Lovett, David L.
Rural Special Education Quarterly, v20 n3 p3-11 Sum 2001
An 8-year study examined the experiences of 23 rural families in the Early Intervention Early Childhood process. Findings indicated a lack of prenatal care and limited access to medical care, specialists, and local doctors due to geographic isolation and shortages of service personnel. Recommendations for improving rural service delivery are presented. (TD)
