Diagnosis of infants and young children has rapidly evolved after the publications of the ZERO TO THREE/National Center for Infants, Toddlers, and Families’ Diagnostic Classification of Mental Health and Developmental Disorders of Infancy and Early Childhood^TM (1994), also known as Diagnostic Classification: 0-3^TM (DC:0-3^TM). Clinicians, researchers, and those with training and supervisory responsibilities have the opportunity to intensively review the organizing principles of the DC: 0-3R^TM and Axes I-V. Differences between DC: 0-3^TM and DC: 0-3R^TM are highlighted. Videotaped case presentations provide “hands on” experience with the DC: 0-3R^TM, with emphasis on understanding, diagnosing, and treating infants and young children within their care giving contents.
