Speech Therapy

Speech therapy for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) focuses on improving communication and swallowing skills to enhance daily living and quality of life. Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) assess individual needs related to expressive and receptive language, social communication, and swallowing difficulties. Therapy may involve strategies such as using visual supports, alternative and augmentative communication (AAC) devices, and exercises for safe swallowing. Speech Therapy will focus on fostering greater independence and social interaction for individuals with IDD.
