At Collaborative Autism Preschool Program (CAPP) Montgomery County Public Schools, we understand that it can be difficult to know if your child needs speech therapy. If your child is autistic, speech therapy is almost always recommended as communication is a vital skill for autistic individuals. Speech therapy focuses on teaching language and communication skills like responding to questions, starting conversations, understanding body language and more. This type of early intervention helps children grow into more independent and confident individuals. If your child has difficulty speaking, is very quiet, or says only a few words, it might be time to consider speech therapy.
