Why I walk for Apraxia Kids!
I walk to support all children diagnosed with apraxia of speech - our Apraxia Stars. To show these children they are not alone and to acknowledge all the hard work they must do to overcome communication challenges that affect their day-to-day lives.I walk to raise funds for the mission of Apraxia Kids – to strengthen the support systems in the lives of children with apraxia of speech by educating professionals and families; facilitating community engagement and outreach; and investing in the future through advocacy and research.
Please help me meet my fundraising goal by making a donation now or by joining our team. A little goes a long way.
I'm doing this to raise awareness of apraxia of speech. It is a very rare only 1-2 children per 1,000 may have a form of AOS. I had gotten diagnosed with a severe case of Apraxia when I was younger. I went through a lot of speech therapy and everything to be able to actually talk and be understood. It is a long very difficult journey for the child and the family.
Please help in anyway you can. Even a little will go along way.
Proud of you.
