Local support

Find speech support for your child

Start with your child’s age and home address. These public programs and the university clinic can explain how to request an evaluation.

01

Under 3: find your local ECI program

Early Childhood Intervention (ECI) helps families of young children with developmental concerns. Search the Texas HHS finder with your home ZIP code. If it lists several programs, contact one to confirm which program serves your address. Explain your child’s age and the speech or language concerns you have noticed.

02

Age 3 and older: confirm your school district

Use the Texas school district locator, then confirm your home address with the district. Ask its special education team how to request an evaluation for your child. Houston city limits and neighborhood names do not determine school jurisdiction. A preschool or school evaluation checks eligibility; it does not guarantee services.

Find your school district
03

Houston ISD families

After confirming Houston ISD is responsible for your referral, follow its Child Find instructions. Contact your child’s school if your child is enrolled. The district explains separate steps for private school, homeschool, ECI transitions and children not enrolled in school.

University of Houston clinic

Questions from parents

Where can I start with speech therapy in Houston?

Start with the local contacts above. Your child’s age and home address can help identify the appropriate service. Ask how to request an evaluation and what information to provide.

How do I request a school speech evaluation?

Find the school district serving your home address, then ask its special education or Child Find team about the evaluation process. A neighborhood name alone does not establish district assignment or eligibility.

Does Speech Blubs replace a speech therapist?

Speech Blubs provides activities for practice at home with a caregiver. Local professionals provide evaluations and individual care. Ask your child’s therapist which home activities fit their goals.

Which languages are available in the app?

Speech Blubs lists app content in English (American and British), German, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Czech, Swedish, Polish, Hebrew, Hungarian, Lithuanian and Romanian. Check the current language options in the app and choose the one that fits your family before subscribing.

Where can I read or play with my child in Houston?

The park and library cards on this page suggest specific places to visit together. Check their linked official pages for current hours, access and events before you travel. If a destination is outside your neighborhood, plan the trip and confirm the entrance you want to use.

How much does Speech Blubs cost?

Speech Blubs is a subscription app. Check the current price, available trial and renewal terms directly in the quiz or your app store before subscribing.

Westchase, Houston

A small family plan for Westchase

Know the Westchase area

Westchase includes homes as well as commercial development. Houston lists Camden Park at 2951 Wilcrest Drive and Robinson-Westchase Library at 3223 Wilcrest Drive. Their separate addresses help you choose an outdoor visit or a book trip. Sharing Wilcrest does not establish walking conditions or make a combined outing necessary. Westchase is also distinct from Mid-West farther east.

One idea for Camden Park

At Camden Park, let your child choose a role for something you brought. A toy can visit, wait or carry a pretend message. Follow the idea in an available public area and describe one action at a time. When you get home, let a familiar person receive the message or join the story. Your child can decide how the scene ends.

Bring a book from Robinson-Westchase Neighborhood Library into play

Ask at Robinson-Westchase Library for an available picture book about sending or receiving something. Let your child choose one scene for a toy to join. You can repeat a short phrase while following the change your child invents.
