Upcoming meeting and events

April 2, 2002

I feel like i've been out of commision for too long. I've just completed

running the first Association Method Certified Training in Philadelphia.

What a fabulous cirricular program for speech and language impaired kids. If

you are looking beyond the theraputic approach and need a Language Based

Multisensory Incremental Program, this is it! Many of our children spend so

many years missing out on languange that it actually has tp be pre programmed

for them , this program will do that. Anyway there is an exiting

organization ,which i am now formally a member of called Talk, Inc. they are

dedicated to opening The First Speech and Language based School in the

Delaware Valley. It will be called The Magnolia Demonstration Program to be

modeled after the Magnolia School in , Mississippi. The school has

been sucessfully in operation for 40 years serving the language disordered

and heraing impaired population. Anyway Melinda Kotler and her group Talk

,Inc. have organized a Walk for Talk to be held June 9th In Wayne,Pa. We

are trying to rasie founds by finding team captain s who can each find 10

people below wh o wil support thier effort. We need to raise about $250,000.

dollars to get the school up and running by September. If anyone wants to

participate please contact me by e-mail or phone.To fing out more You can
