State of the Union
At the Walker Scottish Rite Clinic, this phrase
holds no partisan content but rather the evolution
of the Clinic’s “Union” with Maryville University.
In 2010 and with the impactful gift from Myrtle
and Earl Walker and the leadership of both the
Clinic Board and the University, the Walker Scottish Rite Clinic began the journey of transition
to Walker Hall, the future home of the School of
Health Professions at Maryville.
“We anticipate beginning construction of Walker
Hall in Su mmer 2013 and completion in
Su mmer 2014. Walker Hall will have a profound
impact on the School of Health Professions with
increased student enrollment opportunities, the
addition of the Speech-Language Pathology
graduate progra m and the inclusion of the Clinic
on ca mpus.”
— Dr. Mark Lombardi, Maryville University President
Fall
2012
Newsletter
Upon completion of Walker Hall, the Clinic will
integrate into the University and offer clinical services on campus, as well as existing locations.
However, in this interim period, the Clinic is still an
independent 501(c)(3) organization.
“The combination of education and
on-site therapy will only enhance the
quality and the performance of our
mission once the ‘Union’ is completed.”
— Ed Kellogg, Clinic Chairman
During this “pre-union” period, the University
is raising capital and making preparations for
Walker Hall. Also during this period, the Clinic
Board and Staff are looking at all internal systems
to ensure best program outcomes and mission
advancement, both now and upon the transition
to Maryville.
Clinic Hires New Speech-Language Pathologist
The Clinic continues its commitment to providing
speech and language services by
hiring a new parttime speech-language pathologist.

children of all ages but especially enjoys working
with late talkers and training parents on how to integrate speech and language into their every day
routines. Ali is co-supervisor of the KidTalk Prep

Communication has many applications that
are instrumental to effectively share your story
with others. While the Clinic’s program communication goals come as therapy to the children, we also strive to communicate our mission strategies to you. Earlier this year, the
Board moved forward to officially trademark the
“kids” logo which has been in use since 1993
as part of the Clinic’s visual identity. We also
now proudly bear the St. Louis BBB’s Wise
Giving Alliance Seal for standards of excel-
lence in our community. These tools help us
to communicate with you on our ongoing intent
to provide care and sustain the program that
serves children at risk.
Communication binds us so that together
we can achieve greater purposes. On behalf
of Brooks, Avery, Logan, Isaiah, Olivia and the
hundreds of children served every year at the
Walker Scottish Rite Clinic, thank you for helping us share the dream of effective communication to our children.
In partnership for kids,

Clinic Child Receives Scottish Rite
Foundation Scholarship
The Scottish Rite Foundation’s Benevolence Program just made a little Kindergarten
friend for life! The Program recently awarded
a scholarship to help underwrite a vital piece
of in-class auditory amplification equipment for
incoming Kindergartener, Logan. Without help
from the Foundation, this equipment could
have been cost-prohibitive for Logan’s family
and not been able to address his need to accurately hear and participate in the classroom.
Logan, now six, has
been in speech-language therapy at the
Clinic since he was Jaina
& Loga
n
four years old and
has a history of otologic concerns and subsequent
speech/language difficulties. When Logan
started at the Clinic, he was eager to communicate and said many words but his words
were not clear. Also he got “stuck” on

The Clinic is on
Facebook & Pinterest
The Clinic has entered the realm of the social
media world via Facebook and Pinterest. Both
sites are a great way to connect with supporters and create awareness about the Clinic and
the mission. The Clinic can increase its presence through these social media outlets by
uploading pictures, videos, event flyers, invitations and much more. Ali, the newest member
of the therapy team, has done a great job of
posting therapy tools on Facebook along with
other useful resources for parents. In addition,
Beth, Kate and Ali are also pinning therapy
resources for parents on Pinterest, a virtual
interactive bulletin board. The Clinic is using
Pinterest to pin resources and activities that are
speech and language related. By pinning these
useful ideas it gives parents creative tools they
can use to work with their kids at home. Take

Meet a Clinic Child
Olivia!
Olivia started her
journey at the Clinic
when she was just
two and half years
old. At the time, Olivia was only saying
around 10 words
and primarily communicated through
pointing and gesturing. Upon starting at the Clinic,
y
p
a
Olivia participatr
e
in th
Olivia
ed in the KidTalk
Prep
Group
therapy program for 12
weeks. Initially, Olivia was reluctant to participate in the group activities and did not interact much with her
peers. As the group sessions progressed, Olivia seemed to benefit greatly from the group setting and peer interaction.
As Olivia’s participation and interaction in the group increased,
so did her language and vocabulary. The once “shy” and “quiet”
Olivia started initiating turns during activities by saying “my turn”
and began to use single words to communicate. Olivia’s family was also noticing an increase in her communication skills at
home. By the end of the 12 week session, Olivia was using one to
two word utterances to communicate and exhibited an increased
confidence in communicating with family and peers.

by Beth McCarthy, MS, CCC-SLP
After completing the KidTalk Prep program, I started seeing
Olivia in individual therapy. We continued working on increasing her expressive language skills, building her vocabulary and
lengthening her sentences. Olivia was now speaking in sentences to communicate, but she was very difficult to understand.
Therapy shifted focus from working on Olivia’s language skills
(now age-appropriate) to working on speech sounds. Olivia has
worked on several different speech patterns to help increase her
speech intelligibility. Olivia is now four and a half and progressing
well with her speech.
Olivia is a hard working, energetic and happy little girl that can
brighten anyone’s day. It has been such a pleasure to work with
Olivia and watch her progress from a shy and quiet little two year
old to a four year old girl who tells me stories and loves to laugh
and giggle during our therapy sessions!
Clinic Therapists Attend
RiteCare Conference
By Jacob Gutshall, MHS, CCC-SLP
Clinic Staff Strategic Workshop
The Clinic staff met on Thursday, August 23 for a strategic meeting at Maryville University’s South County campus. The day long workshop included an intense agenda
detailing the Clinic’s initiatives for the coming year, including therapeutic needs and development goals. It was a
great day and the entire team (with the exception of Brandy who is out on maternity leave) was in attendance. Way
to go team!
Carrie Barry, MS, CCC-SLP and I attended the 2012
RiteCare Conference which was hosted by the Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children September 14-15. Over the
course of two days, Carrie and I attended eight continuing
education classes each. Courses covered topics on assessing children’s story telling, dyslexia, behavior management, vocabulary development in preschoolers and much
more. Courses such as these help keep therapist’s skills
up to date and are a requirement to maintain state licensure
as well as certification from ASHA.
The RiteCare conference, held every two years, is also a
gathering of leaders, other therapists, and Scottish Rite Masons from the over 140 RiteCare clinics across the nation. Carrie and I were able to get to know leaders and therapists
from right here in Missouri, as well. We met and spoke with
Bob Cockerham, SGIG and John Woodard, Chairman of
the Scottish Rite Foundation of Missouri as well as therapists from Missouri RiteCare clinic’s in Kansas City, Warrensburg, Columbia, and Kirksville. Carrie Barry reported,
“It was nice to compare programs and share ideas with the
other RiteCare clinics.“ We appreciated the opportunity to
attend such a great conference. Carrie and I learned a lot,
shared ideas, and met some great colleagues.

4The Hadens!
Meet a Clinic Family
by Kate Bockhold, M.S., CCC-SLP
Twins Brooks and Avery Haden have been part of the Clinic family for almost three years. We met them in January of
2009, when their mother Ashley Haden, brought them in for a speech and language screening. While collecting background information, we learned that Avery and Brooks were born at just 24 weeks gestation; Avery weighed one pound,
three ounces and spent three months in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and Brooks weighed one pound, two
ounces and spent four and half months in the NICU. They each received oxygen on and off during their time in the hospital.
Once they were released from the hospital, they immediately began receiving Occupational Therapy (OT) and Physical
Therapy (PT) through First Steps, Missouri’s Early Intervention program. Avery began speech therapy at approximately
nine months of age due to feeding difficulties and Brooks began speech therapy around one year of age.
Because they were nearing their third birthdays, Mrs. Haden was looking for the next place to send the twins, since First
Steps only offers therapy services until children are three years old. After screening Brooks and Avery, we were surprised
how great their language skills were! The main concern was regarding their production of speech sounds. They were
placed on the waiting list and were evaluated in November of 2009. Avery did not need therapy at that time; her speech errors were appropriate for her age. Brooks, however, did need speech sound work and immediately began therapy. Brooks
is talkative and energetic and has been entertaining to have in therapy. Avery began therapy in March of 2012 to work on
some of her speech sounds. She is inquisitive and talkative and also a joy to have as a client. Together, Brooks and Avery
are quite a pair! All of the therapists and staff enjoy chatting with the twins and listening to their hilarious stories while in
the waiting room.
Come and meet Brooks, Avery and Mr. and Mrs. Haden at the annual KidTalk
Celebration on November 3, 2012 at The Purser Center at Logan College. Mr.
and Mrs. Haden will be speaking at the auction and sharing their experiences with
the Clinic.

Clinic Child Receives
Scottish Rite
Foundation Scholarship
...continued from page 2
the first sounds of words so speech was not fluent. When people
didn’t understand him Logan talked less and “gave up” in conversations. With therapy, Logan now speaks more clearly and confidently. He repeats words that are unclear, engages in conversation, asks questions and makes requests.
Logan’s parents, Jaina and Paul noted, “we are so appreciative
of the Scottish Rite Foundation scholarship which supported the
cost of the amplification system for Logan’s Kindergarten Class.
This equipment has enabled Logan’s hearing experience to be
clear and effective.” This equipment will travel with Logan from
grade to grade as he begins his elementary school journey.
Thanks to the benevolence of the Scottish Rite Foundation,
Logan’s school story will have a happy ending!

How You Can Help
The Giving Tree Progra m
The Clinic’s Giving Tree program originated in 1997
to help provide funding to support speech and language therapy at the Clinic. The Giving Tree, located
in the Clinic’s main lobby, is seen by dozens of people
every day as families come and go for speech and language therapy. The Clinic is extremely proud of this
beautiful piece of art and all the children the tree has
helped because of the people who have made a donation via a leaf. The Clinic has made the commitment to
transplant this tree at the new Maryville University Clinic location so families can enjoy it for years to come.
Each leaf on the tree honors a person or event, provides a lasting memorial to a loved one, or is the name
