🥳✨Celebrating 10 Years of Communication! 🥳✨

Can you believe it? Humboldt Speech and Language Services is officially 10 years old! A decade ago, we started with a mission to support families and empower voices in our community. Since then, we’ve had the absolute privilege of watching so many children grow, find their confidence, and share their unique perspectives with the world.

Whether it was a first word, a successful AAC connection, or mastering a tricky sound, we are so grateful to have been a part of your journey.

To celebrate this milestone, we want to highlight the real stars of HSLS: your kids!

We Need Your Favorite "Speech Moments" 🎤
We know that speech therapy often leads to some hilarious, heartwarming, and totally unexpected things being said at home. Did your child pick up a funny phrase? Do they have a unique way of explaining their "speech homework"? Or maybe they had a "breakthrough" moment that made the whole family laugh?
We want to hear them!

How to share: Send us a DM here or email us at humboldtspeech@gmail.com.

The Plan: We will be featuring these "Kid Quotes" and stories in our posts over the next few weeks to keep the celebration going. (All stories will be shared anonymously to respect your family's privacy!)

🥳✨Thank you for trusting us with your children’s care for the last ten years. Here’s to many more years of helping voices grow! 🥳✨

Some Autism traits are well known and overgeneralized while others are less known and often subtle differences.

Autism is a combination of characteristics and not just 1-2 traits. It includes differences in social communication and interests and routines. Here are how these lesser known traits are categorized:

Social communication:
Stereotypes: non-speaking, socially avoidant
Nonstereotypical differences: difficulty understanding abstract language and concepts (such as time concepts, pronouns, prepositions), flat affect/ exaggerated facial expressions or body language, advanced communication skills, socially motivated but different in *how* they socialize

Interests & routines:
Stereotypical: only likes one thing, extremely distressed with all changes in routine
Non-stereotypical/lesser known: collecting items (and often not using said items for play or other purpose), difficulty transitioning before precious task is complete (or if previous task is not “perfect”), strong sense of direction on roads (tied to memory skills and routines), and carries a comfort item everywhere

This area also includes sensory differences such as: holding hands out or shaping body in tight or unusual ways, running fingers along the hall walls, discomfort in crowds, high or low pain tolerance

Differences in Autism can vary from person to person and an autistic person may have all of the differences in this visual, or non of the differences in this visual. But all autistic people will have *some* differences in social communication and interest and routines.
