West Contra Costa Unified School District K-12 Speech Department webinar

This morning (7-9am) I presented a 2-hour webinar to staff from the West Contra Costa Unified School District K-12 Speech Department titled “Children’s Speech Development”. It was wonderful to speak with such an engaged and informed audience. I am very grateful to Romelda "Dang" Famorcan, MS, CCC-SLP, MHPEd who organised the event. The SLP team at West Contra Costa Unified School District have rich language resources - with team members speaking Spanish, Italian, Swedish, Arabic, Tagalog/Filipino, Punjabi, Urdu and a range of other languages.
