Speech therapy for bilingual children with speech sound errors
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests a speech therapy program for bilingual children (Spanish and English) who have trouble saying certain sounds. The goal is to find which treatment targets work best to help them speak more clearly.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part

- Your child should be missing at least 5 speech sounds (like p, b, t, etc.) in their spoken words in each language.
