Please note, there will be two sessions with a 15 minute break between

Fun & Engaging Therapy Ideas Through Purposeful Play Description: This session will explore creative, play-based approaches to speech therapy that promote communication, participation, and progress for a variety of age ranges. Attendees will gain practical, adaptable ideas that blend fun with function-making therapy both meaningful and motivating! Whether you are working on language, articulation, or social communication, these strategies are designed to spark engagement across a wide range of interest and abilities

Breaking Up is Hard to Do: Dismissal from Speech-Language Therapy Description: Is speech-language therapy meant to be a forever support? When is it appropriate to consider dismissal from speech-language therapy services? What if parents disagree with the speech-language pathologist’s (SLP’s) recommendation for dismissal? This session will explore these questions and more by dissecting legally defensible considerations for dismissal from speech therapy services. By utilizing robust data collected from the reevaluation, SLPs can gather crucial information regarding the impact of the disability and the need for specially designed instruction from the SLP.
