Sign Up Your Child
If you have concerns about your child’s speech and/or language skills, you can make a referral to Language Express. Your child will be seen by a Speech-Language Pathologist who will assess your child’s strengths and needs and work with you to build your child’s communication skills.
There are three ways to make a referral:
- Complete the Language Express Communication Checkup and then choose the online referral option.
- Call 1-888-503-8885 or 613-283-2742.
- Fax a referral to 613-283-2924.
Due to privacy concerns we cannot accept referrals by email.
If you are unsure if a referral is needed, click on the Milestones tab and check the communication expectations for your child’s age. Physicians and other professionals click here to make a referral.
