The Children's Evaluation and Rehabilitation Center of the Albert Einstein College of Medicine is supported in part by grants and contracts from the: U.S. Maternal and Child Health Bureau; U.S. Administration on Developmental Disabilities; U.S. Health Resources and Services Administration (Ryan White Funding); New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene; and, the New York State Office of People With Developmental Disabilities. These, at times, are supplemented by grants and contracts from other governmental agencies and private foundations. The Fisher-Landau Center for the Treatment of Learning Disabilities was established through a major gift from Emily Fisher Landau. An endowment created through the generosity of The Gottesman Fund provides permanent support for the leadership of the Center.
