The Plan

I am running the Scranton Half Marathon in honor of my nephew and all children with apraxia of speech. This cause is close to my heart and I appreciate any help you're able to provide! You can follow along with my training up to the day of the half marathon, November 7th, on this page JustGiving.Com/runforapraxia.

The Impact

Apraxia Kids does great work in providing funds for resources and programs that help children with Apraxia of Speech get the help they need and deserve. Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS) is a motor speech disorder that makes it difficult for children to speak. Children with CAS generally have a good understanding of language and know what they want to say, but have difficulty learning or carrying out the complex sequenced movements that are necessary for intelligible speech.Apraxia Kids is the leading nonprofit that strengthens the support systems in the lives of children with apraxia of speech and visualizes a world where every child with apraxia of speech reaches their highest communication potential. 

Every Child Deserves a Voice!
