Make a Difference!
Speech & Language Development

  • In Ontario, approximately 10 percent of all preschool children, have a communication delay
  • Preschool speech and language problems can increase the risk of poor mental health, juvenile offenses, teenage pregnancy and more.
  • If identified early, speech and language problems can be overcome through parent and professional intervention
  • Parent involvement, education and support are the greatest contributors to success in a child's speech and language development
