All Speech and Language Therapists need to feel confident with diagnosing Developmental Language Disorder. And we have resources to help. If you are busy now, bookmark these for later. naplic.org.uk/diagnosing-dld…

Opinions please 🙏
Is it part of a teacher's job to teach social and emotional skills?
Doing a bit of research for myself 😊

Restorative Justice + language and social communication difficulties = a hard time all round.
What an eye opening piece of work this is turning out to be

Yesterday was another great day!
Helped a caseworker to plan sessions on weapon awareness and peer pressure for a young person with DLD. General simplification of language wasnt working so we looked at other ways.
One inspired caseworker, one satisfied SLT 😌

Really useful meeting with the Digital Team to think about adapting all the communication that is shared with their young people. Learning all round! Lots of new ideas in my brain as well as feeling helpful. A good day 😌

As a therapist, I'm not here to fix or make better. That notion implies something is 'wrong'. It sits within a medical model. I'm here to help others achieve outcomes that are meaningful for them; to respect autonomy; to facilitate, not direct.

Leaving custody is really hard, jobs give not only funds to live but routine, a feeling of self-worth and a community around you. If you can help or know someone who can please do.
Half of respondents to a 2016 YouGov survey said that they would not consider employing an offender or ex-offender.
Could your company look beyond the stereotype and bring hope to people with convictions?

"Behaviour = communication". This is taught to us as SLTs. The problem is we can interpret a behaviour but we might not be correct. Then we attempt to change the behaviour based on what WE think it means. #ABA #SLT #SLTChat #autism #education #behaviour #Neurodiversity #SEND #AHP

Young person: "In court they use mad words. I don't know what they're talking about, I just agree"
Completely understand justice is necessary, but is it justice if our young people don't understand enough to be able to tell their story?

This #devlangdis visual from @RADLDcam is truly brilliant. I hope to see it displayed in all schools I visit in preparation for DLD day and beyond I love it. – at Spalding, England
Really useful conversations with a youth justice worker today to help prepare a young person for adulthood and all that comes with the Adult justice system.
Trying to remember all the moments I feel I am making a difference, however small that might be!
