Company History
The people behind Kennedy Krieger Institute do not think small. From its beginnings in 1937, to the present day, the Institute has spent the last three-quarters of a century changing how the world views and treats individuals with developmental disabilities.
When the Institute opened in 1937, it did so with an ambitious and novel mission: To be a place where physicians, educators, researchers, nurses, and therapists could provide the compassionate care, education, and support that children with developmental disabilities needed to unlock the potential they had inside—and to improve upon that potential through a commitment to research and training.
It's a mindset that continues 75 years later, only amplified.
Today, we know that it's not enough to help our patients and students adapt to the realities of the world in which they live -- we should also strive to change those realities. To that end, we must uphold our profound commitment to advancing the field of developmental disabilities through innovative research and professional training—leading to new treatments and therapies and new approaches to community participation here and around the world
