Better Hearing & Speech Month

Page Content

Each May, Better Hearing & Speech Month (BHSM) provides an opportunity to raise awareness about communication disorders and the role of DuBard School in providing life-altering treatment.

With speech and language disorders among the most common conditions that young children experience, DuBard School for Language Disorders is encouraging parents and caregivers to learn the signs of communication disorders—and seek an evaluation now if they have any concerns.

Below are milestone marker checklists for children birth to five years, and tips for parents on how to help encourage communication with their children.

If you are concerned about your child's inability to meet communication milestones, speak with your pediatrician. DuBard School for Language Disorders can serve as a resource to help ensure you are aware of services available for your child. DuBard School's full-time enrollment program serves children from three to 13 years of age. DuBard School is a public school designed to serve students with severe language-speech disorders, including developmental aphasia and childhood apraxia of speech, deafness and hearing impairments, as well as those with the written language disorder of dyslexia.

DuBard School also trains individuals in the DuBard Association Method®, the life-changing method on which the school was founded. To learn more about training in the method, click here.
