May is Better Hearing and Speech Month

May is Better Hearing & Speech Month (BHSM). This provides an opportunity to raise awareness about communication milestones and early warning signs of communication disorders. “We encourage them to seek help from an ASHA-certified audiologist or speech-language pathologist if their child isn’t meeting milestones and/or is showing warning signs.” -Elise Davis-McFarland, PhD, CCC-SLP, American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) 2018 president

MOSD would like to recognize our FIVE hard-working Speech Language Pathologists on staff with 47 years of collective experience of investing in our students. Our SLP’s work closely with each MOSD child to achieve communication milestones. From birth to age 6, children are reaching their potential because of the unique services offered at MOSD.
