Scottish Rite Foundation Funded Programs

Our clinic is one of 12 RiteCare programs in the state. Families are eligible to apply for funding every six months. Contact Dr. Caitlin Raaz at (970) 351-1201 for more information.

Talking and Listening with Preschools (TALP)

The Talking and Listening with Preschools (TALP) program is an intensive group experience for children with language problems and their typical peers. Children attend for 1.5 hours twice weekly. Professionals and graduate students in Speech-Language Pathology collaborate with parents to create individualized language-learning plans utilizing children鈥檚 literature and rich language interactions. Each child is initially evaluated prior to the start of the program to establish baseline language and literacy skills. Then, each individual child鈥檚 progress is recorded throughout the program to document overall growth in literacy and language.
Speaking and Signing Stories (SASS)

Speaking and Signing Stories (SASS) is a six-week program during our summer semester for children who are deaf/hard of hearing and their siblings. They learn sign language and practice listening and talking through exposure to story books and hands-on activities. Parents observe lessons and are provided with weekly handouts (in Spanish or English) about activities and ideas for the home. Lessons are designed and facilitated by graduate students in speech-language pathology under supervision by a faculty member.
Language and Literacy (LAL)

The Language and Literacy (LAL) group is a six week summer program designed for older school-aged children, their siblings and hearing peers. This group uses theatre and fractured fairy tales as the backdrop for developing skills in literacy and language. Students read, write and perform plays throughout the six weeks. In a culminating event, the group performs a play for their families and young children who are deaf/hard of hearing.
