Description

Fundraising event to support the needs of children ages 2-12 who suffer from childhood apraxia of speech (CAS).  CAS is a neurological speech disorder that prevents random messages from the brain to reach the structures that create sounds that create speech.  Event also raises awareness of events,  new research, continues with up to date education for therapists, etc.  All done with donations and proceeds from silent auctions.
