Roughly 1 in 10 Canadians experiences a communication disorder that can affect physical, mental, and social well-being. Speech-language pathologists, audiologists, and communication health assistants support Canadians across the lifespan by helping children develop communication skills, enabling adults to stay connected and engaged, and empowering seniors to live safely, independently, and maintain quality of life.

For Indigenous Peoples, access to communication health services is also connected to the continuity of language, culture, and the sharing of knowledge across generations. Access to communication health services is not equal across Canada. Indigenous communities continue to face systemic barriers. Addressing these barriers is essential to achieving equitable access for all.

Foundations Speech and Language Services are proud to work with several Indigenous communities in the Peace Country. We love working with the children from these nations and assisting them with all their speech and language needs.

Today’s grand opening of the Jumpstart Inclusive Playground at Lions Park (Grande Prairie) felt extra special because my client brought his AAC device along for the adventure.
Inclusive spaces matter, and so does inclusive communication.
Because our words go where we go, and every child deserves a space where they can play, move, and be heard.

Sarah Kelades, our SLP, had the honour of presenting at the COHI Aide Conference in Edmonton last week on “The Mouth–Speech Connection: Why Oral Health Matters for Communication.”
COHI (Children’s Oral Health Initiative) supports oral health for First Nations children, with a strong focus on prevention.
Sarah values strong interdisciplinary teamwork—especially between dentistry and speech‑language pathology, to support kids in a holistic, collaborative way. Early intervention is a shared belief for both the COHI program and SLPs! 👄 🦷 🗣️

A new title has been unlocked 🔓 No longer will we be called ‘Speech’ or ‘Speech Teacher’, we will now be referred to as ‘Speecher’! Nothing is more perfect than that, well other than the creator of the term. Thank you JRA! 😘
