SUMMER SPEECH & LANGUAGE CAMPS FOR APRAXIA

Children with apraxia can enjoy summer camp while still working on their speech skills in fun, new ways. Each year, we collect some ideas for summer camps and programs that include a speech and language component to help children with apraxia continue to make progress and practice. You can find dates, locations, prices, and more program details on each of these programs’ websites. You can also find CAS-specific camp programs highlighted at the top of the list!
