A history of the University of Rochester Medical Center's
Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics Division from its inception
in 1947 through 2019. The field of intellectual and developmental
disabilities has evolved dramatically from the end of the
nineteenth century, changing from dehumanizing institutional care
to community-based services and supports. The University of
Rochester Medical Center's response to community needs in this
field began in 1947. This book describes the history of its
Division of Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics, written by the
only two chiefs the division has had. The narrative traces the
first effort to provide diagnostic service to parents of affected
children and describes the emergence of a full program of
interdisciplinary services, education of future leaders,
community-based consultation, and research. It shows how the
division's growth was molded by changing needs in the region and
the world. It also tells the story of how a multidisciplinary
program can emerge and thrive in a research-oriented medical center
and serve as a bridge between a university and its community
partners. Finally, it underscores the time-consuming process of
program development, including building trust, acquiring needed
resources, and maintaining the highest quality of programming
during both good and difficult times.
