In this episode, Deb and Maria chat with the founder of the organization Smiles for Speech- Sandy Dorsey.

Smiles for Speech provides children with special needs living in impoverished communities with the therapeutic intervention and resources they need to enhance their ability to reach their full potential.

Children with special needs from disadvantaged backgrounds are the most vulnerable, as parents often do not have access to information or resources to help their child. Due to this discovery, Smiles for Speech was founded to help improve the overall quality of life for children with speech and language disorders around the world. Our goal is to provide long-term sustainable solutions for intervention services with a multi-disciplinary approach that includes intensive training for staff and families through the mindful collaboration with other non-profit organizations with similar values.
