IEPs for SLPs

Tuesday, September 13 | 4 pm PT / 7 pm ET

PRESENTER: Amanda Schaumburg, MS, CCC-SLP  

In this course we will discuss considerations for social-emotional learning (SEL) for autistic children and the dangers inherent in promoting “social skills”. We will compare and contrast conventional SEL education and goals with a neurodiversity-affirming program that supports autistic learners to be their authentic selves. Participants will leave with a better understanding of how to evaluate social-emotional goals, lessons and curricula to best support their students.

Examining Implicit Bias and Culturally-Sustaining SLP Practices

Thursday, September 15 | 4:30 pm PT / 7 pm ET

PRESENTER: Christina Royster EdD, CCC-SLP and Ana-Maria Jaramillo, SLPD, CCC-SLP

According to the most recent demographic profile of ASHA constituents, a mere 8% of practicing speech-language pathologists (SLPs) indicated that they identify as a person of color. The result of this demographic phenomenon is that there are often cultural disconnects and profound communication breakdowns between therapists and the students, clients, and patients they serve, as well as families and caregivers. This course will discuss how the lack of diversity in the field of speech therapy can result in a fractured patient-provider relationship and inequitable treatment. Attendees will learn about the impact of implicit bias, actionable steps to diversify the SLP field, and various culturally and linguistically sustaining SLP practices for the assessment and intervention of diverse clients/families/patients. Additionally, participants will be provided with an overview of dynamic assessment, multicultural considerations for school-based SLP services, and strengths/weaknesses of current assessment practices.

Friday, September 16 | 4 pm PT / 7 pm ET

This session will explore practical ideas for using books to target a variety of speech and language goals, including planning and delivery of services.
