May was a whirlwind, but it's essential to shine a spotlight on our remarkable speech therapy team and the transformative impact they have on our students and clients. For us, every month is an opportunity to celebrate the power of communication. We're proud to have top talent on board and are now seeking an experienced adult SLP to join our dynamic team. To our dedicated speech therapists, your tireless efforts are truly appreciated!

Fun fact: Did you know that speech therapy encompasses not just speech and articulation, but also language development, fluency, swallowing and feeding disorders, social communication, and hearing?!

We're grateful for our SLPs who make a lasting difference.

April is OT Month!

Occupational therapy intervention uses everyday life activities (occupations) to promote health, well-being, and your ability to participate in the activities that are important to you. This includes any meaningful activity that a person wants to accomplish, including self care, caregiving, working, volunteering, going to school, play and leisure, among many others. Our occupational therapists consistently help individuals with physical, mental, developmental, emotional, or environmental barriers to gain more independence and success in their daily lives!

We are grateful for our OTs!
