The goals of the Group on Disabilities include (1) promoting the care of patients with disabilities within the context of family medicine, (2) increasing the opportunity for training and care of this population by medical students, residents, and physicians in practice, and (3) developing curricular guidelines and training materials to increase the knowledge and skill in treatment for the ongoing care of people with developmental and other disabilities and their families.
