Consistent with the core mission of the USC UCEDD, we collaborate with Divisions at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles to provide quality interdisciplinary training that prepares professionals to be leaders in the field of developmental disabilities, behavioral health, and care for children with special healthcare needs.
