Since November 2021, The Children’s League, with the cooperation and collaboration of West Virginia University-Grant Memorial Hospital, has operated the Scottish Rite Early Childhood Language Disorders Clinic, “Rite Care” at Grant Memorial Hospital. The Children’s League and John Sylvia, Grant Memorial Hospital president and CEO, are announcing that the “Rite Care” clinic has moved and is now located at 10 Valley Street in Petersburg.
The Children’s League is still providing free speech evaluations and speech therapy for children up to age 21. This ensures that children from Grant County and surrounding communities throughout West Virginia have access to free professional speech therapy near where they live, learn and play.
In addition to speech therapy, The Children’s League also provides free orthopedic, cerebral palsy and cleft lip/palate clinics and physical therapy at its Cumberland, Maryland, location. All provided League services are free to children from birth to age 21 who live in West Virginia, Maryland and Pennsylvania.
The Children’s League encourages pediatricians, professionals and parents to refer children who have questionable speech-language issues. To refer a child to be evaluated at the Petersburg “Rite Care” clinic or for any other provided service call The Children’s League at 301-759-5200 or email a request to ch*************@***oo.com.
