Acknowledgments

Derry Gosselin Koralek is an education consultant who has worked with early childhood programs in a variety of settings for over 12 years. She has served as a State Training Officer for local Head Start programs; authored several guides for supervisors of early childhood programs; and developed comprehensive curriculum materials for caregivers of infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. She developed a modular training package for training substitute caregivers about child maltreatment, which included materials on identification, prevention, and treatment of child abuse and providing appropriate care for maltreated children. She recently conducted a needs assessment to identify the needs of children and parents who are affected by substance abuse in their homes and communities. Ms. Koralek is currently developing a training program for family child care providers in the military, training materials for schoolaged child care, and a Head Start staff development guide on addressing the needs of multistressed children; she is also revising a Department of Defense child abuse and neglect training program for caregivers.
