Summary

This study looks at whether training parents to help with speech therapy at home improves outcomes for children with childhood apraxia of speech (CAS). Forty children aged 2 to 7 will receive standard speech therapy twice a week for 8 weeks. Some parents will get direct coaching during sessions, while others will only watch. All families will practice at home. The goal is to see which approach leads to better speech accuracy.
