Dear Colleagues and Friends,
Help us celebrate our 20th Annual Saffran Conference on Friday, September 25th! The topic this year is The Influence of Precision Medicine on Approaches to Rehabilitation of Language and Communication Disorders in Children and Adults. We have an excellent selection of speakers, and we will be highlighting the work of 15 student scholars during a poster session. These scholars are students who demonstrate dedication to their research and whose work highlights this year’s theme or some topic related to translational research in the communication sciences.
Attached is the Student Scholar Award application. Please circulate the application among your students!
Additionally, ASHA CEUs will be offered for this conference. Registration details are soon to follow.
We hope to see you there!

Best,

Palume vastata küsitlusele, mis keskendub augmentatiivse ja alternatiivse kommunikatsiooni (AAC) kasutamisele lastel.

Loe täpsemalt algsest kirjast:

We are conducting a survey study focused on the use of augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) in pediatric speech-language pathology. Our study, Identifying Gaps in AAC Services for Children: Perspectives from Speech-Language Pathologists, aims to: 

• Explore AAC education and training during SLP/SLT graduate programs
• Identify barriers to AAC service provision amongst general practitioners (e.g., those with varied populations in treatment centres, school boards, private practice, hospitals) and those working in specialized AAC clinics. 
• Understand what supports could increase SLPs’/SLTs’ confidence in using AAC
• Compare experiences between Canadian and international SLPs/SLTs

To ensure we have a representative sample of SLPs/SLTs, we would be grateful if you could share the survey link with your SLP/SLT members (https://redcap.link/AAC_SLP_Survey_UWO). I have also attached a short blurb and the study flyer, which you are welcome to include in your email, newsletter, or other communication with your membership. The survey is open to all SLPs/SLTs working with children and youth and is estimated to take approximately 30 minutes to complete.

The Principal Investigator for this study is Dr. BJ Cunningham, PhD, SLP(C) Reg. CASLPO, School of Communication Sciences and Disorders, Western University, Email: bj.cunningham@uwo.ca. 

If you have any questions or would like more information about the study, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Thank you,

Lauren
