NATIONAL DAY

Speech disorders have normally been diagnosed under generic definitions, with not much cause or explanation for why a child develops a more difficult time speaking. Disabilities such as autism, ADHD, and dyslexia have more public awareness, but when a child is rather diagnosed with a generic speech disorder, not much can be said about what the future consequences of it can be. Developmental Language Disorder Awareness Day is all about giving those who have a language disorder a voice, helping educate the public about this term and helping raise awareness about speech disorders in everyday life.
