[The Guidance Center. Evaluation after a year of activity].

The C.H.U. of Grenoble started a child Guidance Clinic for assuming the education of handicapped children from 2 to 6 (years of age). A whole organization for medical advice, training for walk, psychotherapy, orthophony, together with a day hospital can be found there--the working of whith is provided by a pluridisciplinary team of 15 members (among whom educators, psychanalistes, psychiatristes, psychologistes, pediatristes). The parents may profit by interviews with the educators, with a conjugal adviser, or by parents groups who meet twice a month. An average of 25 children are registered, and 15 are present, among whom most are trisomic 21, or psychotics. The day price is 257 F and 100% returned by the social Security. At last, besides the therapeutic function, the clinic also plays a pedagogic part by receiving probationers coming from different places.
