Child Development Institute was founded by Doctor Robert Myers.
Dr. Myers is a Clinical Child Psychologist with 20 years of experience working with
children, adolescents, families and parents. Realizing the unlimited potential of the
Internet to provide useful information to parents, he decided to utilize this method to
provide parent education that is current, relevant and easy to attain. Also, the amount of
materials such as books, tapes, games and computer software available to parents for
parent education and to provide self-help for their children and teenagers has grown
exponentially. The Child Development Institute Resource Center provides a select set of
materials that have been found to be beneficial. When fully developed, the center will
provide "one stop shopping" for parents.
Working with students, teachers and schools as a consultant for
over 20 years, Dr. Myers has developed a number of programs that have proven to be
successful in helping children with various learning problems. These programs along with
consulting services are now available to schools across the nation through the Child
Development Institute.
Dr. Myers has also developed programs that provide clinically
excellent yet cost effective treatment for various behavioral, emotional and educational
disorders affecting children and teens. These programs are now available to physicians,
medical groups, HMOs and managed care companies through the Child Development Institute.
Finally, the Child Development Institute will begin a research
program to find effective community based solutions for various problems affecting youth.
As a result of this research, a clearing house will be set up to package these solutions
so that community groups will be able to implement them in their respective communities.
The mass media will be used to help make citizens aware of the fact that there are
solutions to these problems that are "grass root efforts" and can be implemented
at the community level without government funding..
Doctor Robert Myers earned his Ph.D. from the University of Southern California.
