Abstract

Questionnaires were sent to interdisciplinary UAF programs across the country to assess the types of handicapped school children who were receiving services at their facilities. A return rate of 65 percent was obtained and the total sample of children was 2088. Results indicated that a wide variety of ages and handicapping conditions were reported. Referral sources and services rendered were analyzed, and implications for cooperation with public school personnel were discussed.
