Mission Statement

The Child Neurology Society is an inclusive professional organization whose mission is to promote the optimal care of children with neurological and developmental disorders by providing education, advocacy, and support for clinicians and researchers in child neurology.​​

Description

Child neurologists are specially trained physicians who have followed up their four-year medical school education with a five-year post-graduate training regimen consisting of two years training in pediatrics, one year in general neurology, and two years in pediatric neurology.

In 1968, the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology awarded the first board certificate in Neurology "with Special Qualifications in Child Neurology." Three years later, in 1972, the Child Neurology Society was founded with an initial enrollment of 223 members. There are, at present, over 70 university-based training programs in child neurology in the United States and Canada, and over 2000 child neurologists in the CNS.
