This year’s spring issue of the "Care for Kids" newsletter has just been published. It features a lead article by a “blended” team of Center for Disabilities and Development (CDD) staff. CDD psychologist, Jillian Reiher, UCEDD program manager and employment specialist, Judy Warth, and CDD social worker, Sally Rieck, collaborated on the article, “Intellectual Disability: Diagnosis, Support, Waivers, and Transitioning to Adult Care.” In the article, they focus on a variety of topics, such as testing and diagnosis, interventions and support, and healthcare and advocacy.
