- Abstract:
- The chapter is devoted to the current topic of psychological and pedagogical support for families raising children with disabilities. With the growing opportunities for inclusive education, comprehensive support for such families, which often face emotional burnout, social isolation, and a shortage of qualified care, is of particular importance. The chapter analyzes modern approaches to family support, including digital technologies (online consultations, virtual reality), interdisciplinary interaction and involvement of parents in the rehabilitation process. Special attention is paid to the evolution of support services: from the emergence of the medical model of the 19th century to the modern paradigm of inclusion, where the family becomes an active participant and generator of the entire process of helping a child with disabilities. Effective technologies (BOS therapy, virtual reality and its simulators, lecture library), support stages and functions of specialists are considered. It has been proven that resorting to a resource-based approach aimed at post-traumatic growth of parents, combined with family-centered methods (success diaries, support groups, including virtual ones) significantly increase the effectiveness of children's adaptation. The chapter offers practical recommendations on the organization of support, including a combination of stationary and remote forms of work with the family of a child with disabilities. The need for a balance between innovative and traditional approaches to overcoming the key problems of the rehabilitation process is emphasized: the shortage of specialists, technological barriers and stigmatization.
