At ACES in Stockton, we understand the importance of identifying communication challenges early in order to help children with autism grow into more independent and confident individuals. If you suspect your child needs speech therapy, there are some signs to look out for. These include difficulty responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing topics, using gestures, and understanding other people’s body language. Speech therapy is a necessary part of early intervention for autistic children, and it’s essential to start this process as soon as possible to take advantage of the critical period in the brain for language development.
