“This is an absolute national crisis, the shortage of speech pathologists, because we have many students, children in and out of schools – you’re talking about some 2- or 3-year-olds – that have communication disorders,” said Miriam Podrazik, a personnel development director at the state Department of Education. “They are needing help learning to talk, and they are on waiting lists.”
