Welcome
The
multifaceted mission of Attachment Disorder Maryland is:
To provide
a clearinghouse of current information, research, and Maryland regional
resources on the etiology, diagnosis, and treatment of attachment related
difficulties.
To support
the prevention and remediation of Attachment Disorder and related problems.
To inform
and educate parents and professionals about the critical role of attachment
in overall social-emotional development.
To provide
information on resources in the Maryland region, for parents of children
with AD or lesser attachment difficulties.
To present
empirically supported, state-of-the-art information on attachment from
a variety of perspectives without endorsing any particular theoretical
orientation or form of treatment.
To provide
a forum for critical debate and sharing of ideas between Maryland providers
treating children with AD.
