Kraft Family Y: FREE Speech and Language Screenings

We are excited to collaborate with TheraFriends Community Partnership in offering FREE speech-language screenings on Wednesday, November 15 from 1 - 5 p.m. at the Kraft Family Y. Additional screening times are available upon request.

TheraFriends is a local non-profit that strives to ensure all children in the Triangle reach their highest potential by offering inclusive and accessible services, resources and programs. Speech and language skills have a notable impact on children's reading, writing, academics and social interactions. 

Screenings indicate whether or not your child's communication skills could potentially benefit from additional support from a licensed speech-language pathologist. A screening is typically a brief 10-minute assessment (that often feels like a fun game to kids) that informs a speech-language pathologist if a child could benefit from further evaluation/therapy. The results of the screening will be provided to you when the screening has been completed.
