Asocial support and social systems approach to early intervention proposed some 15 years ago is revisited in light of changes and advances during the intervening years. Major components of the model are reviewed, reflections and revisions are presented, and the future use of the model are discussed. The contention that early intervention should include a rich array of child, parent, and family supports (experiences, opportunities, etc.) remains a central tenet of the model. The paper concludes with an overview of a "third generation" model integrating new evidence for studying and practicing family systems intervention.
