Speech Language Therapy
Successful social interaction hinges on our ability to communicate. Speech language pathologists specialize in teaching the skills of communication, which include both the ability to express our own thoughts and ideas, and the capacity to understand the messages of others.
At Project CHILLD, our speech language pathologists are skilled in working with infants through young adults (0-18) who have the neurological and developmental disabilities listed below. Our therapists also offer training in the Picture Exchange Communication System (PECS) and other forms of low-tech augmentative communication (e.g. schedule boards).
Project CHILLD is a Blue Cross Blue Shield and Harvard Pilgrim provider.
