Speech and language therapy is a form of treatment that focuses on improving a person’s ability to communicate and swallow. This includes helping people to understand and use language, speak clearly, use appropriate social communication, and safely manage eating or drinking.
For NDIS participants, speech and language therapy is funded under Capacity Building supports. Therapy may include language-building activities, communication device training, speech drills, or feeding support. Therapists also work with families and educators to ensure strategies are embedded into daily routines. It is highly individualised and often play-based for children.
