Understand how to:
• Develop IFSP outcomes
• Rate the quality of outcomes and goals
2
GoalGoal
1) Start with parents’/caregivers’ priorities about child’s learning/development and/or family’s needs
2) Consider what’s working and what’s challenging in everyday routines and activities
3) Consider how the child’s developmental skills, needs and disability influence the child’s learning and participation in everyday routines and activities

Using InformationUsing Informationto Develop Outcomes/Goalsto Develop Outcomes/Goals
First… develop IFSP outcomes based on functional, authentic assessment information
Then… Determine services and supports based on what is necessary to meet the outcomes

Relationship of Outcomes to Services Relationship of Outcomes to Services
• IFSP Outcomes: “What would your family like to see happen for your child/family?”
• Two types of outcomes
– Child Outcomes
– Family Outcomes

IFSP OutcomesIFSP Outcomes
Two types of child outcomes:
• Participation-based
• Routine/activity-based
Child outcomes should:• Enhance learning through functional participation in everyday
activities (child is learner/actor)
• Be important and meaningful to the family/caregiver (priorities)
• Expand activity settings so child can be competent
• Be based on child’s interests

IFSP Child OutcomesIFSP Child Outcomes
Two types of family outcomes:• Participation-based
• Resource-based
Family outcomes should:• Enhance capacity of (family is learner/actor)
• Support accessing community resources and supports (service coordinator supported)
• Be important and meaningful to the family/caregiver (priorities)
• Be based on family’s interests

IFSP Family OutcomesIFSP Family Outcomes
• What are the ways in which the family and team will work toward achieving this outcome?
• Who will help and what will they do?
• How will the team know they’ve made progress or if revisions are needed to outcomes or services?

Developing Criteria, Developing Criteria, Procedures Procedures andand Timelines Timelines
• Necessary and functional for child’s and family’s life
• Reflect real-life contextualized settings
• Discipline-free
• Jargon-free, clear and simple
• Emphasize the positive
• Avoid use of passive words (e.g., tolerate, receive, improve, maintain)

When the child’s contextual information is available, the following IFSP outcome criteria can also be evaluated:•The outcome is based on the family’s priorities and concerns.•The outcomes described both the child’s strengths and needs based on information from the initial evaluation or ongoing assessment.
