Find Support for Childhood Apraxia

Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS) is a rare motor-speech disorder that affects how a child plans and coordinates the movements needed to speak. Children with apraxia know what they want to say, but their brain has difficulty sending accurate signals to the mouth muscles. Early signs may include limited babbling, difficulty imitating sounds, inconsistent words, and frustration during communication.

With early and consistent pediatric speech therapy, many children make meaningful progress.
