Subsidized Speech and Language Therapy Sessions

Autism Treatment Services of Saskatchewan, Inc. is pleased to announce the delivery of SUBSIDIZED SPEECH-LANGUAGE THERAPY SESSIONS through partial funding received by the Saskatoon District Health grant and the James P. Mahoney Fund (Saskatoon Foundation). Sessions are delivered by registered Speech-Language Pathologists (SLP's) in Saskatchewan to children diagnosed with autism or related spectrum disorder between the age of 5 and 18 years of age.

The goals focus on personal and social communication to enhance interaction at home, school, and in the community.

Eligibility

Eligibility is based on the following:

  • Gross family income as confirmed by presentation of the most current Income Tax Return (priority given to lowest income families).

  • No participation in a Health Plan.

Further:

  • Upon acceptance into the program, the family is required to take out an annual membership in ATSS ($20/year).

SLP’s are partnered with approved applicants for weekly one-hour  sessions delivered during late afternoons, early evenings, or weekends, for a 12-week period at a pre-arranged location. The purpose of the initial meeting between the SLP and child is to determine and set 1-2 goals per child, in conjunction with the parent/caregivers. Upon completion of the 12-week period, a final written report, made by the SLP, is available for parents, ATSS, and teachers.
