This is an introduction to the DC: 0-3R Developmentally Based Diagnosis of the  Mental Health and Developmental Disorders in Infancy and Early Childhood diagnostic manual.  DC: 0-3R™ responds to the need for a diagnostic system that accounts for the unique developmental and relational needs of infants in the context of their families. The newly revised manual offers clarified diagnostic criteria, revised diagnostic guidelines, and user-friendly checklists and rating scales. Participants will discuss the unique developmental needs of very young children and apply clinical reasoning in developing diagnoses using clinical videotapes and/or print case examples.
