Identifying and Treating Children with Speech and Language Disorders:

Who Benefits and by How Much?

In this talk we'll consider some new ways to think about the tools we use to identify speech and language disorders in children and take a look at the evidence of their value.  We'll also use a new framework for thinking about how many speech and language treatments exist, and review the evidence concerning their value - in general, as well as for subgroups of children defined by age and severity. The talk will include time for questions, discussion, practice, and mastery of some techniques for quickly triaging research evidence, and for incorporating the evidence that survives into shared decision-making with parents.
