The Aubin Aphasia Speech and Language Center is dedicated to helping individuals that have difficulties with speech/language, swallowing function, aphasia, dysarthria, voice, and a wide array of other skills. Providing helpful resources to individuals that struggle with communication is essential.
The Cerebral Palsy Guide is one resource that may be a helpful tool to use - https://www.cerebralpalsyguide.com/community/ - It provides information for individuals affected by birth injuries, brain injuries, cerebral palsy, Erb's palsy, and other disabilities.
This site goes into detail regarding cerebral palsy (i.e., causes, symptoms, different types of cerebral palsy, diagnosis, prognosis, and coexisting conditions). They also provide great resources when considering different treatment options.
Living with any disability can be very difficult for not only the individual diagnosed, but their family and loved ones as well. We at the Aubin Aphasia Speech and Language Center offer speech therapy to help address many different speech, language, and swallowing skills. We often involve families and caregivers to help maximize therapy gains/progress and to help build an individual’s support system. We have therapists that specialize in helping clients with aphasia, dysphagia/swallowing difficulties, dysarthria, voice, speech/language skills, and much more.
This website is a very useful tool for individuals that are seeking more information, treatment considerations, or community resources following diagnosis of Cerebral Palsy, birth injuries, brain injuries, cerebral palsy, and/or Erb's palsy. It is easy to navigate and allows one to find the specific topic/category of information they are looking for. We hope that if you or someone you know has been affected by or diagnosed with one of the above disabilities, this website will offer some added support or information to help you navigate next steps.
If you find yourself considering speech therapy, please feel free to reach out to us at The Aubin Aphasia Speech and Language Center to schedule an evaluation or discuss therapy options.
