Project Description:

This grant provides core support for the UCEDD. This core support includes administrative staff support, management support and some clinical staff support. The ADD project is used in concert with the MCH grant (noted above) to develop a more stable funding base for the UCEDD, expands the training to undergraduate and community college trainees, and creates a stronger emphasis upon community outreach for the UCEDD. The CORE grant allows the UCEDD to expand its outreach efforts, develop a more targeted adult service component and expand on the relationship with local schools.
