The Speech, Language and Learning Intervention Research Symposium is planned and hosted by a team of speech and hearing science doctoral students and faculty mentors at Arizona State University’s College of Health Solutions.

We are focused on the development of interventions for children with speech, language and learning disorders who come from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, addressing issues of equity, inclusion and access. This conference has been specifically designed in accordance with the philosophy that the development of effective interventions is dependent upon collaborative efforts from all stakeholders — practitioners, educators and community members, along with researchers.
