The Place for Children with Autism & Pediatric Interactions (Speech/Language/Feeding Therapy) have partnered together to provide families tips and strategies for helping children communicate more often and more effectively.
Pediatric Interactions will share tips for helping your child communicate when they are not yet verbal or only using a few words. These tools can be used with “late talkers” or children with Autism. Families will be given suggestions that they can immediately use with their child at home.
