ATTENTION MILESTONE MANOR FAMILIES (especially those who receive speech)

Your voice matters! 📢📢

We are asking you to take just one minute to help protect access to speech therapy services for your child and children across the country.

Beginning in January 2027, speech therapists may face significant reimbursement cuts that we simply cannot afford. Reimbursement rates are already too low, making it very difficult to recruit and retain qualified therapists. Additional cuts could significantly impact our ability to pay speech therapists what they deserve and could result in very limited access to services.

🎤Your voice matters. Without adequate reimbursement, your child - and many other children - may face longer waitlists, fewer available therapists, or may have to go without these essential services.

💰This isn’t about profit, it’s about helping all children have access to a service that gives them the ability to communicate with others. This isn’t just a Milestone Manor or Huntsville problem, it is a Nation wide problem and we have to let our voices be heard!

Give us ✅ when you are done submitting your comment! Then share with other families nationwide so they can tell their story too!

Please take a minute to complete the attached parent survey.

Thank you for advocating for your child and helping us protect access to these essential services.

Sometimes working on our goals in PT is just more fun with a sibling by our side! 💗

This sweet sibling duo worked on visual tracking while in quadruped, targeting so many skills at once!

✨ Visual tracking & attention
✨ Core and shoulder strength
✨ Weight bearing through the arms
✨ Postural control and stability
✨ Coordination and body awareness

Who says therapy can’t be fun?!

Supporting Mrs. Melba and Rocket City Speech Therapy with her new book! 📚🚀 We had so much fun using it during speech to target language development and using our AAC device in a fun and engaging way. Learning through books makes speech therapy even better! 💬✨

We are so thankful for every family who has trusted us with their child, every therapist who pours so much into our kiddos, and every person who has supported Milestone Manor along the way.

It’s been an incredible first year—and with some BIG changes happening around the Manor, we have a feeling year TWO is going to be even better!

Can’t let our week get started without saying goodbye to Ms. Nia! 💗

We’ve loved having Nia with us at Milestone Manor during her clinical rotation. She has been such a wonderful student kind, hardworking, eager to learn, and so great with our kiddos! 🥰

We are so proud of her and know she has such a bright future ahead. Thank you for spending this season with us, Nia! We’ll miss you and are cheering you on in all that comes next!

Reaching, grasping, sitting tall, taking turns, and staying engaged—all in one activity! That’s the power of purposeful play in occupational therapy. Every game is an opportunity to build the skills children need to thrive.

Bigger space. Same heart. 💛 We can’t wait to welcome you to our new home upstairs!
