Description
This is a survey designed to describe some of the
characteristics of the waiting lists for the State of Florida's
institutions for the retarded (Sunland Training Centers and
Hospitals), in the belief that it would propose and partially
demonstrate that some of the characteristics now accepted are
not valid. Open to particular challenge on soundness are the
numbers on the lists, the categories of urgency and the
appropriateness of the applicants' qualifications.
The Division of Mental Retardation of the State of
Florida should then be able to substitute new characteristics
as part of the facts vital to program planning.
Inappropriateness was the theme of the conclusions:
too many children on application lists for the wrong reasons.
