The Institute for Children is an agency dedicated to developing and promoting effective prevention and early intervention programs, materials and best practices for children, families, schools and communities. Halterman serves as Medical Director of the Agency.The study of Rochester, NY, on the basis of incoming asylum captured a more representative sample of previous studies on asthma and behavior, because the children studied are not limited to those receiving treatment at the clinic.
