Caring for Childhood Brain Disorders

The magic of a child’s mind is extraordinary. At Children’s, we recognize that for the one in five children with disorders of brain development and function, there are unique challenges to be met. These children may struggle with behavior, emotion, learning, language, development, sensation and movement.
