The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) (World
Health Organization, 2001) is proposed as a framework for integrative goal setting
for children with speech impairment. The ICF incorporates both impairment and social
factors to consider when selecting appropriate goals to bring about change in the
lives of children with speech impairment. Speech-language therapists and teachers
can work together not only to provide direct intervention with the child, but also
to work in partnership with the child's family, friends, school and society.
