Washtenaw County has school districts of every size, plus charter schools. What they share is the same problem every Michigan district has right now: there are more open school therapy positions than people to fill them. In ASHA's 2024 Schools Survey, 79% of school SLPs said job openings outnumbered job seekers (ASHA).
When a position stays open, students miss IEP minutes and evaluations slip. A partner close to home can help close the gap.
Why local matters
A clinical team nearby
Anwar House of Therapy's Ann Arbor clinic is at 2900 Golfside Rd, Suite 6. Our school clinicians are part of our clinical team, so the clinician in your building has our clinical team behind them.
Flexible delivery across the county
Some Washtenaw County buildings are a long drive from each other. A hybrid model, with on-site days for students who need hands-on support and virtual sessions for others, lets one clinician cover more ground without losing therapy time to travel. See on-site, virtual or hybrid.
Continuity
We aim to keep the same clinician in your building year after year, because continuity matters for students and IEP teams.
