Funding Information:
Program evaluation data have also been used to provide an empirical basis for numerous grant applications that have resulted in research projects funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), mostly through the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD). To date, 13 NIH-funded grants have been awarded to faculty clinician-researchers within the Neurobehavioral Programs, totaling over $13 M. Grants have supported translational research on problem behavior, clinical research on problem behavior and its emergence, research identifying subtypes of self-injurious behavior, and a randomized controlled trial for treatment-resistant self-injury to name a few. Faculty of the Neurobehavioral Programs have published over 300 articles in over 50 different peer-reviewed journals, including behavioral, medical, and interdisciplinary journals. Many of these articles have been highly impactful and have contributed much to advancing knowledge of these problems, and promoting best practices for the assessment and treatment of severe problem behavior.

N2 - The Neurobehavioral Programs at Kennedy Krieger Institute constitute a comprehensive continuum of care designed to serve individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities with co-occurring problem behavior. This continuum includes inpatient, intensive outpatient, outpatient, consultation, and follow-up services. The mission of these programs is to fully integrate patient care, research, training, and advocacy to achieve the best possible outcomes with patients, and to benefit the broader community of individuals with severe behavioral dysfunction. The primary treatment approach utilized across all programs is applied behavior analysis, however the inpatient unit also provides fully integrated interdisciplinary care. Factors driving the development and expansion of these programs are described, as are the processes and systems by which the mission objectives are achieved.
