National Speech-Language-Hearing Month with Encore Rehabilitation Speech-Language Pathologists in Mississippi!

Encore Rehabilitation Speech-Language Pathologists are recognized and honored for National Speech-Language-Hearing Month!

Celebrating Our Incredible Pediatric Speech Therapists!

This National Speech-Language-Hearing Month, we want to take a moment to recognize and celebrate the amazing Pediatric Speech-Language Pathologists who make a profound difference in the lives of children and their families. Your dedication, compassion, and expertise in helping children find their voice and overcome feeding challenges are truly invaluable!

From early language development and communication skills to supporting children with feeding difficulties, you empower kids to express themselves, nourish their bodies, and thrive. Your work goes beyond speech – you help children build confidence with every bite and every word, creating a foundation for lifelong success!

Thank you for all the hard work, patience, and care you put into every session. You make the world a better place, one word and one meal at a time.

We were happy to commemorate the occasion with a special bagel bar for our Great Team!
