The next two issues of this
newsletter will discuss developmental issues – physical, emotional, and
behavioral – that can arise with children affected by recent
immigration, international adoption, and foster care.
In the next issue
of this newsletter, Dr. Shannon Sullivan, Director of the Adoption
Clinic in the UIHC Family Care Center, will discuss the health of internationally
adopted children. She will answer frequently asked questions about
infectious disease, nutrition, immunizations, and abuse and neglect.

the spring, Dr. Beth Troutman, Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at the
UI College of Medicine, will give an overview of emotional and
behavioral issues found with children of recent immigrants, children in
foster care, and internationally adopted children. Topics will include
mental health, attachment disorders, behavior disorders, and abuse and
neglect.
