Description
Anna Shaw Children’s Institute
Dedicated to the memory of Anna Sue Shaw, the Anna Shaw Children’s Institute is a regional leader providing care for children from birth through 11 years of age, who experience the challenges of developmental delays. The Institute is in the style of a treehouse and is located in a serene environment adjacent to Hamilton Medical Center.
