Care and Education of Crippled Children in the United States

Published in 1914, Care and Education of Crippled Children in the United States served as a handbook for social workers interested in the care of disabled children. It provides information regarding hospitals, institutions, and asylums dedicated to crippled youth, particularly the state institutions in Massachusetts, New York, Minnesota, and Nebraska. Topics include education and vocational training, as well as detailed descriptions of the construction of physical spaces for disabled children.
