Which organization is responsible for establishing guidelines related to academic language therapy?

The correct response is that the ALTA (Academic Language Therapy Association) is the organization responsible for establishing guidelines related to academic language therapy. ALTA plays a pivotal role in the professional development and standardization of practices within the field of academic language therapy. This includes developing certification standards, promoting best practices, and providing resources for therapists to ensure effective intervention for students with language-based learning disabilities.

The other organizations listed have different focuses. IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act) is primarily concerned with the education and rights of individuals with disabilities. NASP (National Association of School Psychologists) focuses on the field of school psychology and its practices, while ASCA (American School Counselor Association) advocates for school counseling. While each of these organizations plays an important role in supporting educational and therapeutic practices, only ALTA specifically addresses the guidelines and standards necessary for effective academic language therapy.
