Speech Language Therapy
Speech-Language Pathologists at DePaul provide aural habilitation to children to facilitate their abilities to detect and understand speech, accurately produce speech sounds, develop and use age-appropriate language, and develop natural voice patterns and listening in noise abilities and social communication skills. DePaul’s Speech-Language Pathology staff works closely with the Audiologist and Certified Teachers of the Deaf to develop and implement an integrated, comprehensive program for each child.
All members of the Speech-Langauge Pathology staff participate in frequent continuing education workshops and other various learning opportunities in order to maintain their expertise in providing auditory oral education and to apply current research findings to their everyday practices. All students at DePaul receive intensive individual speech therapy as part of their educational program.
