Needs Assessment Family Survey _Bogg Center on Developmental Disabilities

LEND Needs Assessment Family Survey

The Boggs Center on Developmental Disabilities is applying for a training program for future health care providers called a Leadership Education in Neurodevelopmental Disabilities (LEND) program. As part of this application, we’d like to invite families of children and young adults with developmental disabilities to complete a brief survey about their experiences accessing health care and other services. The results will be used to ensure that our proposal reflects the needs of families in New Jersey. The survey will take about 10 minutes or less to complete.
The LEND Needs Assessment Family Survey can be accessed using the link below:
