I was delighted to read in TAP (Vol. 37, No. 4, p. 4) Dr. Richard Munich's correction of my error in saying that the Menninger Clinic had closed. At the time of writing my article about new appointments at the Anna Freud Centre (TAP, Vol. 37, No. 3), I was unaware that it was the Topeka Institute only that had closed, while the Clinic remained open and moved, as Dr. Munich described, “with over 100 patients and staff to Houston, Texas at the end of May 2003.”
I was especially glad to learn that some of the Menninger Clinic's research will continue to be done in conjunction with the Anna Freud Centre in London and the Child Study Center at Yale University. Indeed a felicitous association.
