Hopeful Parents Community

where parents of kids with special needs connect

I am a proud mother of a 5 yr old that was diagnosed with Speech apraxia when he was 3.  I am currently in the process of checking out areas in the US to possibly relocate to so I can get some great help for my son.  Currently he is getting speech help from the school but his speech pathologist hasn't dealt much with speech apraxia and has just recently gotten her masters.  I do know there is a HUGE difference with speech issues and speech apraxia and how you treat it and I therefore I am sending feelers out there trying to find the best place to relocate so he can get the help that he needs.  So if you want to drop by and say hi, and share your experiences I would love to hear them!  :)  Have a great week.....

Hi, my son is 3.5 and has sensory issues and apraxia, we live in Ohio but after some research Michigan and  Pittsburgh have excellent. Physicians and doctors that specialist in apraxia.  My speech therapist mentioned PROMPT to me last week that helps apraxia kids but only select therapist are trained in it but that's worth looking up.  Good luck wherever you relocate to
