[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PROMPT is one approach and it works particularly well with kids who are not forming many words, but PROMPT is less helpful for kids who need help with conversational speech. Then you just need a good speech-language pathologist who can help with working on articulation at the conversational level. [/quote]

I disagree.  I have a kid with apraxia and one without.  The one without apraxia has problems with Rs and Ls and retracting her lips on certain sounds.  When she reached an age she should have out gown it, she began seeing the same PROMPT certified SLP that works with my kid with apraxia because PROMPT certified therapists [b]ARE [/b]speech/language pathologists.  PROMPT has been very effective for both kids.   It's certainly not the only approach they use.  Lke any good service provider, they use multiple techniques according to the need and according to the child.  It also hasn't cost any more for a PROMPT certified SLP than one who doesn't use PROMPT.  [/quote]
