Special Needs Facilitator

What is a Facilitator?

A compassionate and enthusiastic person who provides one-on-one help in the classroom for a child with diverse needs.

A facilitator's goal is for their student to be successful in the classroom; academically, socially and behaviorally.

Most facilitators have a degree or are working towards a degree in a child related field, such as Speech Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Special Ed, Counseling, and Psychology.

My daughter goes to school in Dunwoody, and we are SO PLEASED with the team at SAGE Speech! We have an incredibly experienced speech language pathologist who travels to our home! My daughter immediately took to her and her approach is just what we needed.

Martha, mom to D.

Thank you to the incredible speech language pathologist on the SAGE Speech team! You showed us our son could “talk” while we waited for his voice to catch up with him. Your speech pathologists in Sandy Springs are top notch and I am so thankful we had the chance to work together.

Kerri, mom to L

The SAGE team have worked closely with my family throughout our journey with our son, Jordon. He was diagnosed with dyslexia and a severe Articulation disorder. She has provided top-notch therapy, many hours of training for my husband and I, and incredible results for our son.
