Listen "Does My Child Qualify For Speech & Language Services At School?"

Episode Synopsis

Schools, hospitals, and private practices that provide speech-language services are regulated by federal, state, and organizational laws, rules, and guidelines that vary significantly between settings. The differences between settings can cause a lot of confusion when children are referred for school-based speech and language services.  In today's episode, we attempt to outline some of the regulations that apply to the provision of school-based speech therapy, which impact eligibility for speech and language services in this setting. To do this, we reference Evaluation and Eligibility for Speech-Language Services in Schools, an article written by Marie Ireland and Barbara J. Conrad.
