Many SLPs (Speech-Language Pathologists) have little experience with CAS. We have FREE resources to help you.
Knowing how to perform an accurate apraxia assessment and treat CAS can be challenging, especially when the disorder is severe and there are multiple treatment programs from which to choose. Our mission is to help you do your best for children with CAS by informing you about CAS treatment resources for SLPs which include evidence-based treatments such as Dynamic Temporal and Tactile Cueing (DTTC) for treatment of moderate to severe CAS.
Free Continuing Education CAS is a rare motor speech disorder, occurring in only 1-2 children per 1,000.
Specialized methods are necessary to assess and treat the underlying motor
speech disorder.
Intensity matters. Research supports treatment 3-4 times per week, especially for children with severe CAS.
With appropriate treatment, even children with severe CAS can make significant improvement and become functional verbal communicators.
There are many different methods to treat CAS, but only a few have sufficient evidence of treatment efficacy.
Follow the evidence. Learn about methods an SLP (speech-language pathologist) uses to assess and treat CAS that are supported by scientific evidence.
