We know that home practice is important for kids to make progress in speech sound therapy. We also know that parents are already doing The Most—and they are TIRED.

So what can we SLPs do to help families actually follow through with speech homework?

Our new review, “Sound advice: Tips for parent-implemented speech practice,” breaks down the 3 essential components that make for a successful home-based speech sound intervention plan. You’ll learn why it’s worth the effort to get a home program going, how a smart speaker can make it easier, and how to set families up for success with our clinical handout—a ready-to-use home speech plan you can fill out together with parents.
