John F. Kennedy Inst., Baltimore, MD.; American Association of Univ. Affiliated Programs for Persons with Developmental Disabilities, Silver Spring, MD.; Johns Hopkins Univ., Baltimore, MD.
Third in a series on the prevention and treatment of developmental handicaps, this publication focuses on linkages among the network of university affiliated facilities (UAFs) and Title V Maternal and Child Health Programs. Four papers in Section I address the following developmental issues as of 1985: "Serious Viral Infection in Developmentally Disabled Persons: Threat to Normalization?" (F. Palmer, et al.); "Promises and Concerns of Technological Intervention for Children with Disabilities" (G. Vanderheiden, T. Dolan); "Community Based Services for Disabled/Chronically Ill Children and Their Families" (M. McPherson); and "The Fragile-X Syndrome" (D. Meryash). In Section II, E. Eklund updates linkages among UAFs and local Title V programs and, in a second paper, reports on a survey of inservice/preservice training needs of state Maternal and Child Health and Crippled Children's programs. The volume concludes with a listing of all papers published in the series, as well as related resource information. (JW)
