Services for people of all ages with developmental
and/or physical disorders

Speech and language services are rendered in the on-site clinic and in the preschool. Following a medical referral, speech and language evaluations are performed to diagnose, evaluate and treat through therapeutic intervention as needed.

Individuals recommended for therapy have a variety of speech and language delays and/or disorders that may be developmental or acquired. Individuals serviced display a need for therapeutic interventions with regard to articulation, voice, fluency, and difficulties in their understanding and usage of language. Some individuals may have associated problems, such as a hearing loss or oral motor problems, that affect their ability to produce speech.

Speech therapy is offered in individual and/or group settings in the therapy room or classroom.

The Speech Department provides clinical fellowship year supervision to employees who are pursuing a Certificate of Clinical Competency and New York State licensure. This supervision occurs over nine months for full-time employees.
