Hey Friends~

Many of you have acknowledged how much of a struggle it is to get Speech Therapy services - either enough or at all. Today, I will address what is going on in speech pathology, how this impacts you, and what you can do to help your kids.

According to the National Institute of Health, 40% of our children ages 3-10 are struggling to develop good communication skills. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the job opening projected for SLPs is 19% over the next decade. The shortage of Speech Language Pathologists has been around for years and has no end in sight.

What are your options when your child needs more help and You don’t know how?

Listen in to find out!

Always cheering you on!
