Speak Out Services actively pursues current research and standards to ensure best-practices in service delivery. Although purchasing materials is necessary and often easier on an SLP’s workload, these materials can often include arbitrary stimuli or unrelatable contexts for today’s current culture.
Speak Out Services works extremely hard to develop personalized plans for your specific communication needs and is influenced by a variety of experts in the field. Below are some of Speak Out Services’ favorites.
