Easterseals Southern California Child Development Center | Upland

At Easterseals Southern California Child Development Center, we understand that it can be difficult to know if your child needs speech therapy. Our experts can help you determine if your child may benefit from speech therapy, which focuses on social communication skills like responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing topics, and understanding body language. Speech therapy is a key element of early intervention for autistic children, and can help them learn effective ways to communicate and grow into more confident and independent individuals. If you’re unsure whether your child needs speech therapy, our guide to speech therapy can help you make an informed decision. Visit our Upland center today to learn more about how we can help your child succeed.
