Resources for Parents
If you have concerns about your child’s development, please make an attempt to speak with your family doctor or pediatrician to let them know about your concerns. We have also included links to different websites where you can obtain more information and learn about resources available within the community.
If you have been or currently are enrolled in one of our studies and have some concerns about your child’s development, please feel free to contact one of the Principal Investigators for your study or one of the research coordinators. The names and contact information for each study are listed on the Current or Past study participants.
