Save time writing speech therapy goals from scratch with this comprehensive SLP goal bank and SMART goal generator designed for Speech-Language Pathologists and other communication professionals.
With 4,440+ pre-written, customizable SLP goals across 11 comprehensive clinical domains, this editable Excel and Google Sheets template gives you a structured starting point for creating individualized, measurable goals across speech, language, communication, literacy, fluency, voice, feeding, swallowing, cognition, motor speech, and AAC.
Goals are organized into detailed goal categories and skill areas, making it easy to find a relevant starting point for your client's specific needs.
The goal bank includes clinically relevant goal types such as:
✔ Acquisition — Build new skills
✔ Maintenance — Maintain previously established skills
✔ Generalization — Apply skills across people, settings, activities, and communication contexts
✔ Caregiver Training — Support caregiver implementation, practice, prompting, and carryover
✔ Behavior Reduction — Included selectively where clinically appropriate for observable behaviors that interfere with communication, participation, or functional performance
Goal types are included where applicable to the specific clinical area, rather than forcing every goal type into every category.
