I am Lisa Geng, mom of 2 boys that were both late talkers, Founder and President of the 501c3 Cherab Foundation, and coauthor of The Late Talker book. I’m currently working with a team doing some research for a sequel book to The Late Talker and will be sending out a series of short surveys to ensure this book includes the information you need now or would have wanted to know. The Late Talker book included numerous quotes from members of the Cherab Foundation, some actual names, some “a parent” but all greatly appreciated by those of us that require or required support and help for our children.
Like The Late Talker book, I want to again open this up to those of you that would like to contribute to help others – that includes taking this survey. This survey is just 7 questions, 8 if you have a child with an IEP: geared toward traditional speech therapies and what is and isn’t working for your child. It shouldn’t take more than a few minutes of your time. You can choose to skip any questions you don’t want to answer. All responses are greatly appreciated.
You don’t have to include contact information, but if you provide your contact information for us to know who you are we would love to thank you by sending you a coupon for 20% off the new book once published. If we use any of your quotes, it will be with your signed consent, and you will be sent a free copy of this amazing new book. Thank you!
