Speech therapists are specialists who help people of all ages to develop communication skills. They are trained in the diagnosis and treatment of a variety of speech, language, voice, and swallowing disorders.
A physical therapist utilizes various treatment interventions to increase strength, tone, range of motion, and decrease pain so kids can return to their daily activities in the community, home, school, and sports.

I can’t say enough about ABC and what a blessing it has been for my son and my family. The staff is all so kind, professional, and encouraging. My son is now using his communication device very well and even learning to talk, and he was nonverbal when we started. Thank you so much! - Parent
