WHO WE ARE

An internationally-recognized institution, Kennedy Krieger provides research, treatment, education and community programs for more than 13,000 children annually. We believe that early identification, intervention, and treatment of disabilities are key to maximizing potential and preventing major problems throughout a child’s life.

Dedicated to understanding, unlocking, and overcoming the problems and injuries that affect a child’s developing brain and nervous system, our approach places special emphasis on Early Detection and Intervention, Interdisciplinary Treatment and a Comprehensive Continuum of Care.

Unlike other institutions that concentrate on one specific area, ours is an interdisciplinary approach that brings together the expertise of a team of professionals from various fields and departments to create treatment plans tailored to the special needs of each child. Learn more…
