Join with us, please, and help create better futures for children with apraxia of speech.
Our Apraxia-STARS Campaign is a critical part of the future for The Childhood Apraxia of Speech Association (CASANA).
We need those who have been helped by CASANA or who care about the futures of children with apraxia to join us in efforts to raise funds for programs and operations of our organization the national voice dedicated exclusively to children with apraxia and their families.
Childhood apraxia of speech (CAS) is a motor speech disorder. Children with CAS have problems saying sounds, syllables, and words. This is not because of muscle weakness or paralysis. The brain has problems planning to move the body parts (e.g., lips, jaw, tongue) needed for speech. The child knows what he or she wants to say, but his/her brain has difficulty coordinating the muscle movements necessary to say those words.
