We’re excited to introduce Ms. Jennifer with Lifespan Speech and Language! She’ll be visiting AALA for our optional speech and language screenings.

For children who are recommended for therapy, Ms. Jennifer can provide weekly services right here at our center once arrangements are made with the family.

We look forward to working together to support our little learners!

Comprehensive care of speech, language, feeding and swallowing disorders for patients of all ages.

🚔💙 Special visitors, big smiles, and lots of learning!

Our Community Helpers theme came to life with a visit from Everlie’s mom, Alejandra, and grandfather, Cortrell Davis (Pop-Pop)! They shared how police officers help keep our community safe, and our little learners loved getting a closer look at the police car. Even our babies enjoyed watching from the window! 👶🪟

Thank you, Alejandra and Cortrell, for sharing your time with us and making our day extra special! 💙⭐
