RiteCare Clinic

The SAU RiteCare Clinic is operated by the SAU Master of Speech-Language Pathology program and serves the greater Quad Cities community by educating and training new speech-language pathologists and assisting children, adults, their families, and community organizations.

As a teaching clinic, SAU MSLP graduate students are integrated into each client's treatment. All speech-language pathology supervisors are licensed in Iowa and hold the Certificate of Clinical Competence from the American Speech-Language and Hearing Association (ASHA).

Our no-cost clinic offers a variety of prevention, assessment, and rehabilitation services to help people with a range of speech, language, and swallowing disorders. We see most clients two times per week for 50 minutes per session.

We proudly offer these services to anyone, from birth through adulthood.

History of RiteCare

In the early 1950s, the Scottish Rite of Freemasonry of the Southern Jurisdiction of the United States founded a program to help children with speech and language disorders.

This established the first RiteCare Scottish Rite Childhood Language Program (SRCLP) clinics that provide diagnostic evaluation and treatment of speech and language disorders, as well as learning disabilities. Today, there are SRCLP clinics and programs throughout the United States serving tens of thousands of children.
