SPEECH, LANGUAGE, AND FEEDING THERAPY

The PROMPT Technique can be used to target speech production disorders in children above the age of 6 months.  When we use the PROMPT Technique, we are targeting all domains and systems in order to assist with sound production.  According to the PROMPT Institute, PROMPT is "a program to develop motor skill in the development of language for interaction".  This means that the PROMPT Technique assists children in increasing their motor skills in order to produce sounds, with the purpose of creating language for communication purposes!

The PROMPT Technique targets the physical-sensory, cognitive-linguistic, and social-emotional aspects of motor performance.
