We also interviewed Megan Cutlip, Executive Director of Childhood Language Center.
She discuss their purpose and mission. The Childhood Language Center is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization whose mission is to help children communicate and succeed by providing high quality therapy services that involve the family.
The CLC currently provides therapy to more than 92 children. Their children come from Boone, Clay, Jackson, Kanahwa, Mason, Mingo, Putnam, Raleigh, and Roane counties.
The Center’s therapists are trained to work with children who have speech and language delays, hearing impairments, Down Syndrome, autism, apraxia, cerebral palsy, traumatic brain injury and cleft lip or palate. Each child receives one-on-one therapy with a skilled therapist on a weekly basis, in addition to regular group therapy outings that integrate the family.
To help fund their mission, Megan talked about their Annual Mac n Cheese Cookoff Event scheduled for Saturday, November 3, 2018 from 11-2:00 p.m at the Charleston Capitol Market. Vendor compete for you vote, as you taste various mac n cheeses.
Music, Mac n Cheese, Drinks, Fellowship and helping children; what a wonderful combination.
