Meadowood Springs Speech and Hearing Camp

Meadowood Springs Speech and Hearing Camp provides intensive, seven days a week therapy for boys and girls who are currently receiving services through an Individual Educational Plan or private services. It is one of the few recognized camp/clinic facilities in the Western United States providing intensive therapy. Therapy is based on the premise that speech is the most human of all man’s behaviors, and that effective speech and language therapy for speech and hearing challenged children will consider the child’s total set of needs and their total environment as part of the rehabilitation task. The purpose of the camp is to offer concentrated intensive therapy by trained speech pathologists in a recreational setting during the summer months when therapy is generally not available in the schools. The camp atmosphere tends to facilitate learning by removing many of the social and environmental barriers existing in the more formal academic school situations. The intensive therapy and carefully structured environment combine to make this quality program enjoy a high rate of success.
