Abstract
This special issue focuses on students with chronic illness and how school personnel can most effectively support these at-risk youth. The five articles that comprise the issue represent research on a range of pediatric conditions, including sickle cell disease, human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immune deficiency syndrome, asthma, food allergies, cancer, diabetes, heart disease and seizure disorder. These papers examine and provide critical commentary on prevention and intervention strategies, school personnel perceptions of working with students with chronic illness, and potential avenues for interdisciplinary collaboration and models of coordinated care for these medically compromised youth. Together, these articles provide an introduction to working with youth with chronic illness and are designed to assist school personnel in using and applying empirical research to their own professional work.
