Childhood apraxia of speech (CAS) is a motor speech sound disorder requiring a distinct approach to intervention and target selection. This session will discuss theoretical and clinical considerations for choosing appropriate targets as well as practical elicitation strategies for children with CAS. The presenter will review case examples and videos of actual intervention sessions.
Learning Outcomes:
After completing this session, you will be able to:
identify five considerations regarding target selection for treating CAS
describe at least two new elicitation techniques for target phonemes
discuss how these target selection and elicitation approaches expand your repertoire of tools
