ECO-MAPS The eco-map helps to identify family resources at-a-glance. Areas of strength and concern are presented to assist in creating a picture of the family’s world. Information is gathered in circles. Eco-maps are a snapshot in time. Periodically update changes in connections to resources—especially natural familial and community resources to maximize usefulness of the tool. The list below helps spur questions and generate deeper discussion about resources and strengths during the initial visit.
