We had a chance to talk to Julie Robertson and Rachel West about their apraxia journeys. Each journey with apraxia is so unique. We hope that this video can help others who are on their journey with apraxia find comfort in the fact that there is a whole community ready to support them and offer advice.

A huge thank you to our two parents who joined us for this video!
Your different perspectives are so valuable for others to hear. Thank you again, Julie and Rachel!

    Thank you for sharing your stories! We’re at the point where we just learned of CAS after evaluating our 3yr old son. So thankful to have some direction and can prepare a plan forward.

    "Labeling" is actually necessary for reimbursement purposes, in order to provide services for that child and 60% of children who are diagnosed with autism also have CAS. It's a challenge for any clinician to accurately determine or diagnose a child with Autism or CAS with only one visit.
