Most of the research in Early Intervention (EI) has involved children and families that are middle class and White; therefore, the views of families who are from diverse backgrounds has been lacking in the literature. To present a diversity of perspectives, this study systematically utilized 120 families, half who were African American and half who were White, who lived in both urban and rural communities. Using the Family Needs Scale (Dunst, Cooper, Weeldreyer, Snyder, & Chase, 1987) and the Family Support Scale (Dunst, Jenkins, & Trivette, 1986), these families' needs and sources of support were determined and compared. ANOVA procedures were used to compare differences in overall (composite) family needs and sources of support and MANOVA procedures were used to compare differences in types of (subscales) family needs and sources of support.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a Most of the research in Early Intervention (EI) has involved children and families that are middle class and White; therefore, the views of families who are from diverse backgrounds has been lacking in the literature.

520 $a The results of this study indicated that African American (AA) and White caregivers differed significantly on their reported family needs, but not family sources of support. Urban and rural caregivers differed significantly on support, but not on need. The interactions of race/ethnicity and location as they affected need and support were non-significant. Results indicated that AA and White caregivers differed significantly on all subscales of reported family need; urban and rural caregivers did not indicate significant differences on any subscales. A significant interaction effect was present for only one subscale of need (personal/family growth). African Americans and Whites did not indicate significant differences on any subscales for family sources of support. There were significant differences between the urban and rural respondents on two subscales of family support (formal/informal kinship and social/organizational support). A significant interaction effect was present for one subscale of support (spouse/partner).
