Family Discussion Groups Led by two interns from the University Center for the Child and the Family, these weekly discussion groups invite participants to talk with others about the impact of aphasia on their life and family. These groups are open to anyone whose life has been impacted by aphasia. The first few days of enrollment are devoted to assessment and to the development of an individualized treatment plan.
Reassessment occurs at the end of program enrollment.
A written report will be provided to the client, referral source, and any other individuals requested by the client, at the end of the program or other times as necessary. The achievements of the Program result from the combined efforts of many individuals, all striving toward the attainment of the unit's clinical and research goals. All members of the staff are team partners dedicated to the achievement of excellence. The Clinic Director, Holly K. Craig, Ph.D., and the Head of Clinical Services, Mary Packard, M.S., M.U.P., provide the leadership for the Certified Speech-Language Pathologists and Clinical Fellows who comprise the clinical staff. The most capable people available are selected.
