"In a sworn declaration, Assistant Superintendent Gordon Wohlers conceded that for years L.A. school officials have, in effect, perpetrated a fraud on the children of Los Angeles.

Extractions: Children's Rehab Center Offers Special Care for Special Children Children's Hospital Rehabilitation Center is a special place that has been providing care for children throughout East Tennessee since 1947. The Rehabilitation Center understands that a child's rehabilitation needs are very different from an adult's, and every aspect of our services and programs focus on children's unique needs. The Rehab Center's pediatric specialists provide family-centered inpatient, outpatient, day treatment and home health rehabilitation care. Our pediatric rehab specialists include speech pathologists, physical and occupational therapists, nutritionists, social workers, recreation therapists, registered nurses, and a pediatric physiatrist, (a physician specializing in physical medicine and rehabilitation). Comprehensive evaluation and treatment services are tailored to the individual child and are provided in an environment that supports the child's achievement of his or her greatest potential. All Rehabilitation Center programs and services reflect a philosophy of care that offers a commitment to the whole child, recognizing his or her unique combination of characteristics and needs. The family-focused environment promotes full parent participation in learning ways to integrate therapy goals into the family's daily life. We strive to help each child reach his or her greatest level of independence, maximizing quality of life and potential. Who uses the services of Children's Rehabilitation Center?
