Assessment and Intervention for Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS)
Description
Speech-language pathologists (SLP) play a central role in the screening, assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS). As indicated in the Code of Ethics (ASHA, 2010r), SLPs who serve this population should be specially educated and appropriately trained to do so. SLPs who diagnose and treat CAS must possess skills in differential diagnosis of motor speech disorders and co-morbid language disorders, have specialized knowledge in phonological encoding disorders and motor learning theory, and have experience with appropriate intervention techniques.
