Research addressing the delivery of early intervention programmes offers guidelines that, when followed, presumably maximize the programmes’ intended benefits. In this study, the authors used a quasi-mixed, monostrand method to investigate how families of children with disabilities in south-east Turkey perceived the service delivery they were receiving. Organizing their perceptions under a framework related to the Turkish-law-mandated guidelines, the authors found that the provision of services in the region varied greatly from one professional team task to the next. Implications for the improvement of service delivery are discussed.

The Government of Ukraine has approved a plan of measures for the implementation of the pilot project "Creating a system of early intervention services to ensure the development of the child, preserve his health and life" for 2019-2021. The pilot regions implementing the early intervention service include ten regions of Ukraine, including the Odessa region. The main goal of piloting the project is to create and develop an early intervention system for children with disabilities or the risk of disability and their families, to improve the quality of early intervention services, to reduce the level of disability of children in Ukraine and to prevent their institutionalization at an early age. The purpose is to consider, on the example of a municipal non-profit enterprise of urban subordination, a mechanism for implementing early intervention services in Odessa. The materials of the research are the principles of financing of the health care system of the city of Odessa and the work of local medical institutions in the conditions of reforming the medical industry; methods are description, analysis, synthesis, generalization, graphic design. The article provides an example of funding services for the public at the expense of both national and local budgets, as well as mechanisms for coordinating services for children with disabilities or the risk of disability and their families.
