Outcome #3: Improve access to therapy services by reducing the waiting list to less than thirty days across providers for children with Medicaid Managed Care plans. Fourteen children gained immediate access to therapy services through this funding. At this time, there remains a waiting list for speech therapy, and we are actively working to enter these children into the program as soon as possible. We are currently using all available office space for our speech therapists and speech therapist assistants. One of our current speech therapist assistants will be leaving in December to complete her required clinical practicum towards her speech therapy degree, and it is our intent to either hire her back as a speech therapist once these have been completed, or seek a new staff member at that time. 151
