Communication disorders have a significant impact on personal, social and academic development. Defined as an exchange between individuals in order to transmit information, communication includes various aspects: content (what we say), form (the way we say it), use (why we say it), comprehension, as well as all motor aspects of language, such as articulation and voice. Since communicating can be done orally or through writing, communication disorders are numerous and varied. As specialists in this field, speech therapists work hand-in-hand with those suffering from these disorders in order to help lessen their impact on their daily lives.
