Abilities First School at Straus Family Pavilion | New Windsor

At Abilities First School at Straus Family Pavilion in New Windsor, we understand that it can be difficult to tell if your child needs speech therapy. If your child has been diagnosed with autism, then speech therapy is almost always recommended as many people with autism have difficulty with communication. Even if your child is very verbal, they might need to work on communication skills such as responding to questions, starting or ending conversation, changing conversation topics, and understanding other people’s body language. Speech therapy is an important focus in early intervention for autistic children and can help them grow into more independent and confident individuals. If you think your child is struggling with speaking, our comprehensive guide to speech therapy can help you determine if they need further assistance.
