Speech Language Pathology – An Attitude of Gratitude
Its that time of year again, when our teams at Abington Speech Pathology, RemoteSpeech, and VirtualTx reflect upon the year, and the very things that we are most thankful for. We present this list each year as a way of expressing our immense gratitude to our patients, therapists, associates, and beyond. We have listed just a small sample of the things in the world of speech-language pathology that make us smile. We hope that this compilation can give you the same sense of gratitude, and warm your hearts for the coming holiday season.

ADVOCACY.
In the world of Speech-Language Pathology, we are so very thankful for the ongoing advocacy and recognition in the field; advocacy amongst parents, providers, educators, and beyond. We are most thankful for the advocacy that initiates change at both the State and Federal levels. Developments from the current year include the ASHA Membership Advocacy. The American Speech Language Hearing Association provides the framework for positive growth and advancements. Some of their achievements include Advocating on ASHA's Annual Capitol Hill Day. ASHA members from across the country advocate for audiology and speech-language pathology during ASHA’s annual Capitol Hill Day in Washington, D.C. They meet with members of Congress to provide education about who audiologists and SLPs are and the work they do. They also advocated for support or opposition on various pieces of legislation.

TECHNOLOGY.
Technology is a consistent theme within our list of gratitude. For years, advancements in technology have helped provide much needed treatment in areas where the services may not be available. Our dependency on technology grew substantially with the introduction of the Covid pandemic.
