Their goals are to reach out to expectant and new parents of a child with Down Syndrome, to be supportive of and provide social interaction for people with Down Syndrome, their families, friends and acquaintances, to aid and challenge each family to constantly evaluate and re-think how new ideas, information and technology may help or affect their child with Down Syndrome and to educate the general public by assisting members of our community in learning to see people with disabilities as people, not as their disability.

Presented by Libby Kumin Ph.D., CCC-SLP, Professor Emeritus Loyola University Maryland, part of a three-part series sponsored by CDSPG.
Presentation is targeted for parents of children from age 4 to adulthood.
How can we help children with Down syndrome develop speech that is easier to understand? There are many factors that affect speech intelligibility in children and adults with Down syndrome but the occurrence and combination of factors are different for each person. Dr. Kumin will present a framework that can be used for identifying, analyzing, and treating the factors that affect speech intelligibility for your child, e.g. rate, articulation, oral motor skills and childhood apraxia of speech. Attendees will learn how to write IEP goals that target factors affecting speech intelligibility in your child and how to develop a home-school communication plan and to use home activities to practice speech skills. Handouts, forms and checklists will be included.
| CHOP Symposium coming up on March13!!!! Our member Helen Milligan, who is also a PT at CHOP, is looking forward to hearing Dr. Stein speak about behavior challenges and strategies! Helen will also be a presenter that day, so if you have a little one getting ready to walk, then her treadmill training talk is for you!!!! Lots of videos and tips to get you started! đđ |
