Seminar on Developmental Disabilities and Family Centered Care

All medical students at UMDNJ-Robert Wood Johnson Medical School receive an introduction to developmental disabilities and family centered care through the Developmental Disabilities Seminar, a required component of the pediatric rotation for all third year medical students at UMDNJ-Robert Wood Johnson Medical School.

The Boggs Center coordinates the seminar six times each year in collaboration with the Department of Pediatrics at UMDNJ-Robert Wood Johnson Medical School.

A key component of the seminar is visits to families in their homes, to increase awareness of and sensitivity to the strengths and needs of families who have a child with a developmental disability.

For more information, contact Michael Knox at michael.knox@umdnj.edu or 732-235-9301.

Project Director: Michael Knox, Ph.D.
