Scheiber, Barbara Moore, Cory Attitudes Clinical Diagnosis Disabilities Elementary Secondary Education Financial Support Parent Associations Parent Role Parent Teacher Cooperation Resources Special Programs The booklet offers information to help parents find resources for their handicapped children. Following a brief discussion of the difficulties of having a handicapped child is a chapter with tips about diagnosis.
