Abstract
Background: Speech and language disorders can significantly affect children’s academic and social lives during their early years in school. Early detection and intervention are important to mitigate the impact of speech and language disorders. Appropriate assessment tools are required to accurately assess the speech and language skills of multilingual children. Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) in Ghana lack culturally appropriate assessment tools to accurately identify speech and language disorders in children.
