05/01/11 - May is Better Hearing and Speech Month
May is Better Hearing and Speech Month! According the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA), more than 5 million children in the United States have a speech, language and hearing disorder. Parents are often unsure about what to do when they suspect their child has a challenge. To learn more about how to detect issues in your child, visit ASHA’s website. Thanks to our speech-language therapists at the Institute who have dedicated their lives to helping children with speech, hearing and language delays. |
