since your child is 4 year, you do not qualify for birth23 program, however you can call birth23, which is a government body, they will evaluate and can reffer your child to local school, where your child can get free special program for speech therapy.

if need more info- email me at anurag0906 at gmail

Talk to your doctor and if doctor feels that the child can benefit from a therapist, ask him for a referral. Then you can contact the speech therapist and work with them.

Also, speech therapy covered by most of the insurances, check with insurance too, but the problem we have very limited speech therapist in Stamford CT.

Can anyone please put some light on Speech Therapy or Birth23 program?
I know its a govt body but can we trust them completely?
Is it something that doctors and insurance doing business with it?

I am really curious as I am a parent of 2 years old and my kid is speaking a lot but he is not addressing anyone and not following any direction. So my ped suggest us to consult with birth23 program whereas when we are speaking with our parents in India they are saying this is completely fine with 2 years old.
Please help if anyone gone through this!!
