Experimental Group

The process of deinstitutionalization requires the development and evaluation of alternative residential facilities within a community. This paper describes two experimental group homes serving moderately and severely handicapped children. The characteristics of the homes, ages and types of children served, and the two staffing patterns used are described. The results of this 2-year study are reported in (1) effects of staffing patterns, (2) results with children, and (3) costs.

Parent Program

A modification of the Paired-Stimuli Parent Program (Florance, 1977) was adapted for the treatment of articulatory errors of visually handicapped children. Blind high school students served as clinical aides. A discussion of treatment methodology, and the results of administrating the program to 32 children, including a two-year follow-up evaluation to measure permanence of behavior change, is presented.
