Title

First Words Project

Short Description
FIRST WORDS Project website is a model early identification and intervention program based in the Department of Communication Disorders at Florida State University. This project uses the evaluation tool developed by Wetherby and Prizant (2001), the Communication and Symbolic Behavior Scales- Developmental Profile (CSBS-DP). The purpose of the CSBS-DP is twofold: first, for early identification of children who have or are at-risk for developing a communication impairment; and second, to monitor changes in a child's communication, expressive speech, and symbolic behavior over time. This site contains recent convention handouts from this project, the infant/toddler checklist with scoring instructions and cutoffs. This site also includes a links area.
