What happens during a speech therapy evaluation?

An evaluation typically includes discussion with caregivers, observation, assessment activities, and review of communication or feeding concerns to better understand your child’s strengths and areas where support may help.

Question 2

What is childhood apraxia of speech?

A speech and language evaluation can help determine whether therapy may be beneficial.
