Providing Speech Therapy Service to Children in the School Setting

Speech Therapy Service to Children in Schools

Speech Language Pathologists play an important role in working with school age children in the educational system. By working in conjunction with school administration and faculty, speech-language pathologists provide students the help they need in developing communication skills necessary to advance academically and socially.
