Advocacy Toolkit

Member Advocacy. We understand how vital our professions are for all British Columbians to receive the professional services provided by speech‐language pathologists and audiologists. It's now up to us to ensure that the provincial decision makers understand also. Our goal is to ensure that our voices are heard and understood by delivering our messages to elected decision makers. We need members bring the issues of speech-language pathologists and audiologists to the forefront, and increase awareness of our profession. Speech and Hearing BC is pleased to share its Advocacy Toolkit to assist in these efforts.

Member Presentation Slide. As a member of Speech and Hearing BC you have the privilege of representing the Association when you are out and about in a professional capacity. One way you can do that is to include some information on the Association in any public presentations that you do that are related to speech-language pathology and audiology.  We have included a slide and some notes for you to add to presentations to the public, to colleagues, to other professions, wherever you see fit. We hope you will take this opportunity to improve and increase our visibility around the province. Please be in touch with any questions.
