Community Clinics
A cost-effective alternative to private speech therapy. These university clinics utilize the services of advanced graduate students, under the supervision of licensed practitioners. These clinics also utilize a sliding scale for services.
The phone numbers listed here are either direct lines to the universities' clinics or to the communicative disorders departments. Should you call during the middle of a semester or quarter, you will most likely be placed on a waiting list until the next session begins (typically when openings occur). Optimum times to contact these programs is prior to the start of semesters in August and January. |
