Parents Need the Right Diagnosis for Childhood Apraxia of Speech
Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS) is considered to be a rare speech problem in children. However, because it is rare and researchers believe that other types of problems may occur more often than this does - there has been less research into how common apraxia in kids really is for those with different levels on the severity scale. Apraxia kids has reported that there are estimates like: 3-5% of children on a speech therapist’s caseload could have apraxia of speech. Which is why parents need the right diagnosis from a speech therapist that is highly qualified and experienced with this communication disorder.
