I have been working with NOSHC for a little over four years. I have grown to know and love many wonderful children and their families. We provide screening at many public and private schools. We provide therapy at several schools and many Head Start Centers. We have a psychologist located in our building who provides a parenting boot camp and that we can refer parents who have further concerns about their child's development. We recently opened a new satellite location in New Orleans East so we can better serve the clients in that area. Additionally, we have audiologists who provide hearing evaluations and hearing aids. It has made all the difference to me to see some of the children who come in with speech and language delays leave, after time spent with our staff, a more well rounded and confident child. This past summer we also started an Autism Summer Camp that was a great success and that I think will only blossom more over time.
