The Walk for Apraxia is the signature fundraising event for Apraxia Kids. It brings together those touched by apraxia, uniting families and professionals in a community of support. At the heart of the Walk for Apraxia is the celebration of our Apraxia Stars. Each child with apraxia receives a medal in recognition of the hard work that goes into finding their voices. Join us at your local event and discover a network of support!

Over the course of the 12 week period, the SLP leads 2.5 hour weekly parent training groups of 6 to 10 families. The therapist will teach Hanen strategies for encouraging language development through dynamic, engaging sessions in which families practice strategies and develop a plan for how to incorporate these strategies into their daily routines. Videos will be used and the SLP will teach families how to problem solve and make the most of their child’s early years to develop better communication and language skills.
In addition to individualized feedback provided during the group sessions, the SLP will meet individually with families and their child for 3 sessions. During these individual feedback sessions, the SLP will provide specific, individualized support and coaching to help each family incorporate learned strategies into their everyday routines.
