Be the Voice

“My grandson Evan has battled with Apraxia for the past 7 years since his diagnosis. Through countless hours and years of hard work he continues to overcome the challenges of communication that so many of us take for granted. While communication comes more naturally for him now, the daily challenges of apraxia continue to shape his life. The success of the battle is in many ways dependent on the resources and strength of the apraxia community. We are grateful for the Apraxia Kids organization for the guidance provided to us in this journey. “

“Our son was diagnosed with CAS right after his third birthday and after attending speech therapy for a year. Luckily, his speech therapist pointed us to a great organization called Apraxia Kids. They provide support to families and speech therapists alike. They are a great community where parents can get support from other parents who understand what they are going through. Apraxia Kids also helps professionals learn more about CAS. Apraxia Kids has amazing programs that are helping bring awareness of CAS and helping every kid find their voice.”

“Our son was diagnosed with Apraxia at three years old. We had never heard of apraxia, but felt like sponges ready to soak up all we could to better position ourselves as his advocate. I’m grateful to this day for the Apraxia Kids Facebook groups and website, which gave me access to resources and support. The feeling of community is palpable and the celebration and love for all our children leaves a lasting impact.”

“There is nothing better than giving back to a great organization like Apraxia Kids. A lot of times as a parent you feel helpless watching your child struggle with apraxia but by raising donations you are doing something important and taking control of the situation. You can feel good knowing you are helping your children feel special about themselves!”

“Our son was diagnosed with apraxia at 2 years old. We want to fundraise and contribute to Apraxia Kids as they help all of these amazing children who need so much support! It takes an entire community! They are so vital to this journey for families.”

“Finding and receiving services and support for apraxia has been a long and tiresome journey. The Apraxia Kids website brought me my first hope in learning to treat apraxia and find support. With the Apraxia Kids support groups, I no longer felt I was on my own. Other families were able to offer some tips and a caring ear to my concerns.”

“When our daughter was diagnosed, we had no idea what childhood apraxia of speech was. We scoured the internet looking for answers to our many questions, and were pleased to find Apraxia Kids. It has been an amazing resource for our family, friends, and educators as we all work to understand and raise awareness for this disorder.”

“Every dollar raised helps support children with apraxia of speech. I believe in the work Apraxia Kids does to strengthen the support systems in the lives of children with apraxia so that each child is afforded their best opportunity to develop to their full potential. This is why we spread awareness!”

“Our son received an iPad from the Speech Tablet program three years ago. We were in a major transition in our life and we couldn’t financially afford an iPad. We wanted every tool we could get to help him on this journey. The iPad has been an amazing tool for him. Now, we hope the money we raise for Apraxia Kids, no matter how much or how little, can help other families on this journey.”

“When we were new to this diagnosis, we needed the hope that others provided. The progress that our son has made throughout his apraxia journey is extraordinary, and I have no doubt that the Apraxia Kids family has maintained my peace of mind for many years now. We want others to experience the love from the organization and the local families as we have.”

When you inform even one other person about childhood apraxia of speech, you are making the world a more understanding and compassionate place for children with CAS! Hear from our community members about why raising awareness is important to them!
