4.0 out of 5 stars Practical Guide in Developmental Disabilities, March 16, 2006

Louise la Plante (Las Vegas, New Mexico) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Developing Staff Competencies for Supporting People With Developmental Disabilities: An Orientation Handbook (Paperback)
This is the most comprehensive guide I have found in the field of developmental disabilities. This book should be a must for service providers to use in training support staff. Parents will find it useful as well, especially those with adult children with disabilties.
