The RFP Speech Language and Hearing Clinic is proud to be Minnesota's SPEAK OUT!® Therapy and Research Center, supported by a grant through Parkinson Voice Project®. The SPEAK OUT! Therapy Program, developed by Parkinson Voice Project, helps people with Parkinson's and related disorders REGAIN and RETAIN their speech and swallowing. The program can improve volume, articulation, breath support for speech, vocal quality, intonation, and facial expression. Patients and families also report reduced drooling and improved swallowing. This highly effective, research-based treatment combines education, individual and group speech therapy, and daily home practice. The "Circle of INTENT" outlines the various therapy components and emphasizes that this program is lifelong.
