Funding for the program is provided by a $30,000 grant from the Frances L. and Edwin L. Cummings Memorial Fund and a $10,750 grant from Impact 100 Garden State.

The pediatrician will receive credentials through a nine-month accelerated course in neurodevelopmental and related disabilities through the New Jersey Leadership Education Program.
