Electronic
May Month Marketing Kit

Dear Speech & Hearing Enthusiast:
Thank you for joining our National Speech & Hearing Month
Celebration! May Month has been celebrated across North America
since 1927 and we are pleased that so many CASLPA members will
be taking the opportunity this year to show pride in their professions
and help raise awareness of the issues relating to speech, language
and audiology in their communities.
In order to help you accomplish this, we are pleased to provide
an electronic copy of our May Month Marketing Kit. Please be
advised that some of these files are PDF (requiring Adobe Acrobat)
and some are Microsoft Word 2003 files. We hope that you will
not encounter font or file conflicts. If you experience difficulties
please contact us.
The files that make up the May is Speech and Hearing Awareness
Month Marketing Kit can be obtained by clicking on the links
