The Language-Literacy Center (LLC) was initially funded through a grant from University of the Pacific to meet the clinical training needs of Pacific speech-language pathology students and the language-literacy needs of area youth. The LLC is designed to provide our students with opportunities to learn best practices in working with youth who have language-literacy disorders and to conduct research in this area. We are currently seeking referrals of individuals who meet the following criteria as potential candidates for the LLC:
- Children/adolescents in grades 1-12
- Mild-moderate language disorder
- At least low average cognitive ability
- Struggle with literacy (reading and/or writing)
- Ability to attend weekly, one-hour afternoon sessions
Assessment and treatment sessions will be provided free of charge.
