Organiser's description

WHAT IS CHILDHOOD APRAXIA OF SPEECH (CAS)? A motor speech disorder that makes it difficult for children to speak. Children with the diagnosis of apraxia of speech generally have a good understanding of language and know what they want to say. However, they have difficulty learning or carrying out the complex sequenced movements that are necessary for intelligible speech.

WHY RACE?

* To raise awareness about childhood apraxia of speech.
* To raise funds sustaining the programs and resources offered by Apraxia Kids https://www.apraxia-kids.org, the leading nonprofit that strengthens the support systems in the lives of children with apraxia of speech.
* To honor our Apraxia Stars - they fight and overcome the challenges of CAS each and every day. Dedicate this race to someone special or to recognize the efforts of all our stars.
* To conquer a goal - whether your New Year's resolution is to start a hobby, try a new activity, reach a fitness milestone, donate to a cause, or spread awareness about childhood apraxia of speech, the 5K Voice Venture can help you accomplish one or all your goals!
