Working with infants and children who have cleft palate, and /or craniofacial differences is becoming a more frequent
population that a community speech-language pathologist and occupational therapists and assistants may encounter on their
caseload. Frequently, speech-Language pathologists and occupational therapists and assistants often report that their only
experience with cleft palate and/or craniofacial differences they had was acquired through graduate coursework. The purpose of this presentation is to provide an overview of common speech, feeding, and swallowing differences one may identify with infants and children who have cleft palate, and /or craniofacial differences. Participants will be able to recognize differences in typical infant anatomy and atypical anatomy
