🧵The problem with removing labels (in any context), is that as soon as they go, there is no common language amongst professionals, across schools and other agencies.
Everyone starts talking at cross purposes and misunderstanding each other. Everything becomes muddled and confused.

We got a date (Oct 16 Friday) and a theme (Together for DLD) for DLD day! Let's start making plans today to DO something together WITH someone for DLD! DLD refers to Developmental Language Disorder--difficulties with understanding, using and learning language. #DLDday @radld.bsky.social
Thank YOU to you who made the effort to do things big and small to let people know more about Developmental Language Disorder on DLD day! We can't see DLD but it is there. People with DLD can shine with support from us all! Let's continue to speak up for them. #devlangdis @radld.bsky.social
