iLeap: OKC Metro Program Helps Give Voices To Children With Communication Disabilities

For children, it can become extremely frustrating to know what you want to say, but unable to communicate it. There is a program specifically designed to help with that.  It’s called iLEAP, an inter-professional language enrichment and pre-kindergarten program. It is located within the John W. Keys Speech and Hearing Center at 1200 N. Stonewall on the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center campus.
