CPERL Receives CSU Ventures Creative Works Funding

Their proposal, titled "Improving Uptake of a New Patient-Centered Assessment and Web-Based Care Planning Guide for Children with Special Health Care Needs", was 1 of 9 proposals considered for funding in this round. Mary Khetani and the CPERL team obtained $12,600 for collaboration with Eric Tisdale (CHHS IT) and Craig Spooner (CCP). Together, they will optimize the initial build of an accessible and fully linked web-based intervention planning guide (PEM+) to improve participation-level outcomes among parents of children with developmental disabilities and delays.

CPERL is now housed in the Department of Occupational Therapy at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC), effective 9/1/2015. This award was accepted and partially declined due to change of institution. A newly established collaboration with the Center for Behavioral Intervention Technologies (CBITs) at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine will support continued work on PEM-Plus.
