Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Committee for the Study of the Care and Education of Physically Handicapped Children in the Public Schools of the City of New York: Report of the Sub-Committee on the Education of Children in Hospitals and Convalescent Homes, 1941 This statement of findings and conclusions of the committee study ing the problems Of educating children who are confined in hospitals and convalescent homes is one section Of the report of the Committee for the Study of the Care and Education of Physically Handicapped Children in the Public Schools Of the City of New York. This Com mittee was appointed by the Board Of Education in 1936. All of its inquiries, which extended over a period of more than three years, have been made by sub-committees. NO appropriation was given the Committee for the employment of technical and clerical personnel. The studies were possible only because of the voluntary assistance of physicians, educators and other Specialists who have given much time and consideration to the problems presented by handicapped children, the provisions now made for them and the ways in which the existing program can be improved. Clerical and statistical help was provided by the Work Projects Administration and numerous philanthropic organizations. In addition to the persons listed in this report the Committee is indebted to the Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Harold G. Campbell, to the teachers and school Officials and others who have helped in the survey. The Director acknowledges his personal indebtedness to Dr. Lyman C. Duryea and to Dr. Robert T. Rock, Jr. Finally he is indebted to the Public Health Relations Committee Of the New York Academy of Medicine which has critically reviewed this and the other reports Of the Committee.
