The event associated with the 1980s in the evolution of the child life profession is the **Ratification of the Child Life Position Statement by ACCH**. The Child Life Council (CLC) was established in the 1960s, Mott Children's Hospital's early play programs began in the 1950s, and the Vision-to-Action strategic planning process is a much more recent development.<br /><br />The key child life competencies from the options provided are **Assessment** and potentially **Budgeting**. While budgeting can be a part of a child life specialist's role, particularly in supervisory positions, it is not considered a core competency like assessment. Core competencies focus on direct work with children and families, such as assessment, therapeutic play, family-centered care, and communication. Budgeting is more of an administrative skill.<br />
