Join 2019 Early On Faculty Grant Award winner Audrey Farrugia, Ph.D., CCC-SLP, Associate Professor of Communication Sciences and Disorders, Eastern Michigan University, present From Higher Education to Hands-on: Preparing Early Intervention Speech-language Pathologists.

Description: Speech-language pathologists play a pivotal role in early intervention. However, due to the wide scope of practice, varying state mandates, and limited job positions, the work of early intervention speech-language pathologists remains a mystery to many. This presentation will explore themes from the reported roles and responsibilities of 13 early intervention speech-language pathologists throughout the state of Michigan and their suggestions to faculty for preparation to enter the field. Particular attention will be paid to discussions of initial eligibility/diagnosis of autism with families.
