Children, families and carers, early childhood education and care services and early childhood intervention professionals can all be part of the inclusion team. The most important step in becoming a team is to talk and listen together. Shared conversations help you to know and understand other inclusion team members and will help the inclusion team at every step along the way. The Conversation Starters resources for ECEC Services, Families and Carers and ECI Professionals will help you begin your journey of working together.
