Speech-Language-
Hearing Month

Every year, the month of May is dedicated to raising public awareness about communication, swallowing and hearing health. This year, we are launching a social media campaign to educate British Columbians on the important role of speech-language pathologists and audiologists.

We encourage you to help us spread awareness by posting on your own social media channels.

Find out more on the support and services we have.
