If you have never heard of this profession you are not alone. Many people do not know about speech-language pathologists (SLPs) until they need us.

What do speech-language pathologists do?

We help people of all ages and from all walks of life who have communication disorders and/or swallowing problems. It is estimated that about 10% of the population of the United States of America has some form of communication problem. That’s a lot of people—and that is why there is such a demand for SLPs.
