"INFO 4 U"
We are planning to post new information quarterly on the SHAA website. Our goal is to provide information that could possibly help you in your speech therapy sessions or in the classroom. Information will vary from websites that other speech pathologists have found helpful, informational therapy handouts, or useful worksheets. Also, if you would like to contribute something that you have found, please email it to Stephanie Hixon, Committee Chair, at ALschools@AlabamaSHAA.org.
