Good Morning Gloucester 
how awesome is this that Beverly Hospital would offer this screening free?? wow! being a mom of a son who is non-verbal, I would encourage all moms of children in this age group to run to a free screening like this! the earlier difficulties are diagnosed, the earlier intervention can begin!
