According to the Palestinian Centre for Statistics (2013), children with communication disorders constitute the highest percentage of special educational needs in Palestine; however, there is a lack of services to support these children. The purpose of this quantitative study is to analyze how the preschools settings (private and public) in the Northern region of the West Bank, Palestine, which contains these cities and towns (Nablus, Jenin, Qalqilya, Qabatiya, Tulkarem, Salfeet, and Tubas), support children with communication disorders from the parents' and professionals' perceptions ( preschool teachers and specialists such as physiotherapists, speech and language therapists, psychologists, etc). To collect data, two questionnaires were developed, one for parents, and the other for professionals. The participants in this study were 40 parents and 44 professionals from all these regions. The researcher aimed to clarify the type of support provided for children with communication disorders in preschool contexts in Palestine, also to find out if there is a relationship between the variables of the study (gender, age, professional experience, etc) and the perceptions of parents and professionals towards the support provided in preschool settings. Preliminary data from this study will be provided.
