Agency for Persons with Disabilities | Tampa

At Agency for Persons with Disabilities in Tampa, we understand that it can be difficult to know whether your child needs speech therapy or not. If your child is autistic, speech therapy is likely the best place to start for early intervention. There are a variety of communication skills that can be improved through speech therapy, like responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing conversation topics, and understanding body language. It is important to act quickly if there are any delays in language development since there is a critical period for language development. Our team of experts can help guide you through the process of determining if your child needs speech therapy and provide resources to help your child grow into a more independent and confident individual.
