Cole’s Quarterly: The Anniversary Issue

COMING SOON

AAC MONTH (OCTOBER)

AAC Awareness Month takes place every October, highlighting the importance of Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC). This includes any communication method that goes beyond natural speech, such as speech-generating devices, sign language, picture boards, and gesture applications. This global initiative aims to promote inclusion, education, and accessibility.

Did You Know?

Cole Health has formed an internal AAC committee dedicated to researching and developing curriculum aimed at enhancing our multidisciplinary staff’s skills in creating plans of care that support and accommodate children requiring assistance with communication.

CELEBRATING 25 YEARS OF SERVICE

The year 2001 represented a pivotal moment in culture with the introduction of transformative tech like Apple’s iPod and Wikipedia. It was also the year that introduced pop culture icons such as Shrek and the first Harry Potter film. And for us, it marked the beginning of something that would become equally defining: the establishment of what we now know as Cole Health. In the summer of 2001, Jennifer Cole, MS, CCC-SLP, opened doors to the “Cole Speech & Language Center” in Spring, TX. Soon after, Adam Cole, MBA, joined as a crucial player in the organization’s growth and success. Now, 25 years later, this family-owned business continues to flourish under their dedicated leadership and care.

This August, Cole Health is celebrating 25 years of service. This remarkable milestone marks a quarter-century dedicated to improving community wellness and advancing pediatric therapy services across the country. Through the years, Cole Health has transformed from a single speech therapy practice into a reputable provider of comprehensive pediatric therapy solutions, proudly operating 24 locations across the nation. This growth reflects the steadfast commitment of our staff, both past and present, as well as the invaluable support from the communities we serve. 

As we continue to move forward, our organization remains committed to the mission established a quarter century ago, to Bring Hope and Change Lives Here and Around the World.

INTRODUCING APPLIED BEHAVIOR ANALYSIS (ABA) TO NORTH CAROLINA & WASHINGTON STATE

We are excited to share that Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) will now be part of our service offerings in both Washington and North Carolina. As the demand for ABA therapy increases, we will thoughtfully enhance our services to support families on their therapy journeys, both within our clinics and beyond. By expanding into these states, we are not only broadening our reach but also reaffirming our commitment to delivering accessible, high-quality care to those who need it most. Our ABA services and offerings will continue to evolve to meet the needs of our clients.

IN SERVICE TO THE COMMUNITY

As we continue to expand our services, growing alongside the community remains a top priority. We are committed to giving back in various ways to support as many families in need as possible. Recently, our team organized an in-service event at our location in The Woodlands, TX, where we welcomed multiple health and wellness vendors to interact directly with families. The event was a tremendous success, and we aim to expand and continue these initiatives.

Special thank to our guest speakers, collaborators and vendors: Project Beacon, All Ears Center, Autism Meets Faith and MD Kids Pediatrics. Learn more about their offerings.
