Abstract	Over 400,000 American families that participate in early intervention (EI) services each year (Office of Special Education Programs, 2020). Family engagement is so crucial to the success of these services (Bruder, 2000; Trivette et al., 2010) that the use of family-centered practices (FCPs) is included in the wording of the federal special education law (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, 2004). The Division for Early Childhood (DEC) of the Council for Exceptional Children's Recommended Practices outlines practices EI providers can employ to ensure the family centeredness for EI service provision (DEC, 2014). Ideally, the guidelines offered in the DEC-recommended practices would result in EI home visits inclusive of all caregivers. Often in practice, EI providers focus primarily on working with mothers (Curtiss et al., 2019; McBride et al., 2017). For this reason, this article focuses on supporting and engaging fathers and male caregivers. A father is defined as any primary caregiver in a child's life that identifies as male. The terms fathers, father figures, dads, and male caregivers are used interchangeably throughout this article. (ERIC).
