Better Hearing and Speech Month

By: Katie Filer, M.S. CCC-SLP

Although the impact of COVID-19 has rattled our world and affected most, if not all, therapists, we are still looking forward to participating in Better Hearing and Speech Month.

In 2020, the theme is “Communication at Work”. At Speech Within Reach, our main concern is keeping our kids healthy and happy. We are going to spend the month giving you tips and tricks as they relate to speech and language.

Don’t forget, Dysphagia also falls under speech! Dysphagia? This is the medical term for swallowing disorders. We evaluate and treat children who range from picky eating to difficulty chewing and swallowing. Throughout the month, we will be including ideas you can use at home to help your picky eater who may be turned around with the new normal routine.

Keep an eye on our Facebook and Instagram pages for all great content related to speech/swallowing and language.
