Apraxia of Speech

Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS) is present at birth. Unlike acquired apraxia, there are no specific lesion sites in the brain. Children with CAS may also demonstrate feeding problems, expressive language delay, difficulty with coordination and fine motor skills, oral hypo- and hyper-sensitivity and problems learning to read, spell and write.
Speech-language pathologists use a variety of approaches in treating AOS, and treatment must be tailored to the needs of the individual. Frequent, intensive (3-5 times per week), one-on-one treatment has proven most effective, and speech-language problems that co-occur with AOS must also addressed during therapy. Family participation is strongly encouraged to help the client practice new skills and use them in outside environments.
