Texas Voice Project specializes in the Lee Silverman Voice Treatment, the only speech treatment clinically proven to effectively treat the speech and swallowing deficits associated with Parkinson disease. In sixteen individual treatment sessions over four weeks, patients learn to use increased effort when communicating. LSVT improves overall strength, endurance, and coordination of the speech and swallowing mechanisms. All treatment is provided by master’s level speech-language pathologists who are LSVT certified.

Texas Voice Project does not bill Medicare or insurance companies. The program is supported entirely by donations, grants, and a “Pay It Forward” system. At the end of the four-week Lee Silverman Voice Treatment, each patient is given an opportunity to make a donation and “Pay It Forward” to help the next patient receive treatment. Texas Voice Project is a 501C3 nonprofit organization to whom tax deductible contributions can be made. Thanks to all of our marvelous donors, we have never had to deny anyone treatment. For more information, please see our Pay It Forward Commitment Form.
