Educational Materials

Families can improve their care-giving capabilities by learning more about chILD disorders. This web site offers a wealth of information, and more is being added all the time.

  • Check out the Living with chILD section nearby, as well as the What is chILD and Research sections.
  • We are continuously trying to create and update informational brochures about specific diagnoses. Many of these are linked to the chILD Disorders pages in the “What is chILD” section.
