Description
IMPORTANT – Before ordering, please complete this form
The ASQ-TRAK is a developmental screening tool for observing and monitoring the developmental progress of Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children aged 2 months to 5½ years.
To develop the original ASQ-TRAK, seven of the Ages and Stages Questionnaires®, 3rd edition – the ASQ®-3™ – were adapted in partnership with community and in close collaboration with the ASQ®-3 authors. This culturally adapted version for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children has been expanded and this second edition now includes all 21 ASQ®-3 ages. For more information on the changes made to the ASQ-TRAK2 please see: www.strongkidsstrongfuture.com.au/asqtrak/#faq.
The Royal Children’s Hospital is working with the ASQ-TRAK team based at The University of Melbourne, our campus partner, to support the distribution of the ASQ-TRAK kits and their supporting materials to communities.
