Presented are some casefinding approaches used in the Developmentally Delayed Infant Education Project (Ohio). Brief sections include information on the Project's objectives and limits; the responsibilities, desired skills and competencies, and desired traits and attributes of casefinding coordinators; identification approaches (such as contacting social service agencies and medical facilities, reaching parents through the media, and mass screening); ways to handle initial contacts and testing in the home; approaches to handle parents of children accepted or denied acceptance into the program; and common parental concerns (such as cause of the child's delay). Among information appendixed are criteria for infant selection, general admission procedures, and guidelines for follow-up. (SB)
