Interventions for Childhood Apraxia of Speech

Presented by: Rebecca J. McCauley, Ph.D.

This session is a rare opportunity to learn about interventions for childhood apraxia of speech (CAS) directly from expert Rebecca J. McCauley, co-developer of the criterion-referenced assessment Dynamic Evaluation of Motor Speech Skill (DEMSS). Attendees will receive an overview of four well-studied interventions for CAS: Nuffield Centre Dyspraxia Program, PROMPT, Speech Motor Programming, and Dynamic Temporal and Tactile Cueing. For each intervention, professionals will get a brief summary of its rationale and procedures, a description of the evidence supporting its use, and more.
