The Children's Program

At The Children’s Program, we understand how important it is to recognize if your child needs speech therapy. Even if your child is very verbal, they can still benefit from speech therapy to develop communication skills like responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing conversation topics, and understanding body language. Speech therapy is a big focus in early intervention for autistic children and can help them grow into more independent and confident individuals. Our guide to speech therapy can help you determine if your child needs this type of therapy and provide information on how it can help.

At The Children’s Program, we understand the importance of effective communication in developing strong connections with people. That’s why we offer speech therapy services to help children improve their verbal and nonverbal communication skills. Our experienced speech therapists work with each child to develop an individualized plan that includes communication strategies like gestures, simple signs, verbal speech, and Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC). We also provide assistance with nonverbal skills, forming speech in a clearer way, understanding and responding to questions, discerning facial expressions and their corresponding emotions, noticing and understanding body language, and feeding and swallowing. With our speech therapy services, we strive to help children communicate effectively in all environments.
