Creating a Future Full of Hope...
Helping Children Communicate
1. Why does the Scottish Rite wish to sponsor this clinic? 2. What is the connection between the RiteCare Clinics and the Scottish Rite? 4. When will the clinic begin operations? 5. How many children will be served each year? 6. Aren’t these services provided by the public schools? 7. Will these services involve any cost to the families? 8. How will the Scottish Rite raise the funds necessary to support the RiteCare Language Clinic? 9. How will the proceeds of the capital campaign be spent? 10. What giving options will be available? 11. Is this a one-time-only appeal? 12. How can I volunteer?

Clinic Update
Background 1. ● Developmental Apraxia of Speech 2. ● Autism and other Pervasive Developmental Disorders (Autism Society of Minnesota); Autism Society of America; Autism and PDD Support Network 3. ● Phonological Processing Disorders 4. ● Cerebral Palsy (United Cerebral Palsy) 5. ● Down Syndrome 6. ● Hearing Impairment (Alexander Graham Bell Association for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing)
Our students’ success stems from close communication
between our Speech-Language Pathologists and families, as well
as collaboration with other agencies including schools and
private clinics.
Happenings ● Summer group therapy sessions (“camps”) accommodate a larger number of kids throughout the summer. During the summer of 2009, 43 children came to “speech camp” for 2 hours per week for 6-8 weeks. Because of the length of sessions and variety of activities, summer group therapy requires approximately 2:7 therapist/student ratio. ● Our Toddler Talk training program ● We are in the process of setting up a joint venture with Shriner’s Hospital Minneapolis to service some of their clients needing speech therapy.
