1. Summer Program Initiative

 
Ottawa Parents of Children with Apraxia (OPAC) and the city of Ottawa are working together to assess the recreational needs of children and families who are dealing with apraxia and other diagnosed speech disorders.

The information gained in this survey will serve to inform the development of a new recreational program for children with apraxia and other speech disorders during the summer 2011 in Barrhaven at the Walter Baker Centre as part of a pilot project with the City of Ottawa. Note you don't have to live in Barrhaven to use this program. This is where the available facility is located.

The goal is to develop a recreational program for children with apraxia and other significant speech disorders. It will be staffed experts in the field including speech language pathologists, occupational therapists and recreational staff and include a higher ratio of adults to children then exists in a typical recreation program.
