Quick Answers
My 18-month-old daughter has just been diagnosed with a rare blood disorder. How can we learn more about this disorder?
The Missouri Developmental Disabilities Resource Center
(MODDRC) offers a wide variety of information about
developmental disabilities and low-incidence disabilities.
Another service offered by the MODDRC is that of Research
Services. Parents can call the MODDRC at 800-444-0821 and
ask if there is any information available about their
child’s disability. If the information is not readily
available in the current information files, the staff will
research Internet sources, professional journals, and other
academic information to discover what does exist in
currently available information. It is helpful if you have
the correct spelling of the syndrome or disorder when you
call.
You can also request Research Services through the MODDRC’s website at www.moddrc.org by clicking on “Form to Request Info” and then completing and submitting the Information Request. In your request, be sure to include the pertinent information in the “comments” section of the online inquiry form.
