Samenvatting:

This timely guide discusses methods, organizational structures, and philosophies which can be used by school counselors, special educators, and administrators to establish therapeutic inclusion programs in K-12 schools.

The Therapeutic Inclusion Program opens with information about therapeutic classrooms and continues with explanations of how the programs function within the larger public school community. As the book travels through the therapeutic program, it discusses staff roles and qualifications, staff-to-student ratios, and the role of administration. Each chapter uses two approaches toward describing the implementation of a therapeutic inclusion program, beginning with a description of the structure and practices, along with the reasoning that supports them, and following with examples from real work experience in the form of vignettes, which will illustrate the concepts and structures in action.

Intended for education and counseling professionals looking to design, implement, and maintain an effective therapeutic inclusion program, this book helps fill a noticeable void in public education literature and know-how regarding therapeutic programming.
