Penko & Associates Speech Services is a Winnipeg-based practice supporting children with speech, language, social communication, learning, and sensory needs. Its goal is to help each child build effective communication skills and reach their potential. Services are provided by registered speech-language pathologists and include consultation, assessment, and individualized treatment. Occupational therapy is also available to support daily living activities, learning, sensory processing, and participation in different environments. Speech-language and occupational therapy may work together to address children’s needs, including challenges associated with neurodiversity and dysregulation.

The practice serves children from 18 months to 16 years of age. Families are an important part of the intervention process: parents receive coaching and treatment plans with strategies they can use at home. At a parent’s request, the team can collaborate with a child’s school or other professionals and provide preschool visits. Parent referrals are accepted, and speech therapy may be covered by many insurance companies.
