Identifying children with school learning and behavior problems served by interdisciplinary clinics and hospitals

Questionnaires were sent to interdisciplinary UAF programs across the country to assess the types of handicapped school children who were receiving services at their facilities. A return rate of 65 percent was obtained and the total sample of children was 2088. Results indicated that a wide variety of ages and handicapping conditions were reported. Referral sources and services rendered were analyzed, and implications for cooperation with public school personnel were discussed.
