CASLPA Awards

May is Speech and Hearing Awareness Month

Take the May Month Challenge!

CASLPA audiologist André Lafargue urges CASLPA members to take the time to get involved and celebrate May Month.

He challenges all CASLPA members to:

a) Pick a cause or activity dear to your heart;

b) Pledge formally that during the month of May you will initiate or participate in an activity which will celebrate Speech and Hearing Month and put forward the cause of audiology and speech-language pathology;

c) Finally, since we are all very keen on outcome measures, you will report your activities to national office and indicate that you are fulfilling your May Month pledge.

Furthermore take up the challenge to motivate at least one of your colleagues to do the same."


We could all take a page from Andrés PR recipe book. To quote:

"The recipe to PR success is simple - Pick your passion, stick with it and use every opportunity to get your point across… It may take a while but it is well worth the effort. If YOU don't do it…then WHO DO you think will do it???"


Read Andrés inspiring speech and start planning.

Once you have celebrated May Month, please take a few moments to complete our online report so we can highlight these activities in the summer issue of Communiqué.
