💫A RECAP OF THIS SUMMER💫

We successfully collected data at the MN state fair for four days at the end of this summer! Thank you for this great opportunity.

Children participated in 2-4 cognitive processing tasks and a sentence repetition task. Thank you to all the families who participated in our study 😌 And thank you CLDC team ❤️

Stay in tune for the results and what we find out🍉

Join our research study! We are actively looking for SLP and child/parent participants in a study examining if we can improve children's speech-language treatment by providing client feedback to clinicians.

Please reach out with any questions or if you are interested in participating!
