W hen we think about TEAM, we think about each and every one of you who help to make up this wonderful
organization. Wikipedia defines team as a group of individuals who are dependent on one another to work
as a whole to achieve a goal. There is no doubt that we are dependent on our members, leaders, lobbyists and
support staff. It is cliché that no reputable organization can exist without its members but most importantly an Early Bird Rates
organization cannot be successful without teamwork. KSHA’s goal has always been to support the professions Available Until
of audiology and speech-language pathology in the Commonwealth. This past year has personified that this goal
cannot be accomplished without tremendous grit, determination, love and teamwork. KSHA thanks you for your January 20, 2021
kindred spirit and support.
Now, more than ever, it is critical we continue to work together as a team, as essential health care providers,
researchers and educators to provide high quality outcomes for all of those impacted by communication
disorders.
No one could have ever predicted we would be living and working through a global pandemic. COVID-19 has no doubt challenged us personally,
professionally, mentally, socially and physically. It has truly had an impact on everyone. However, we are bound and determined to show our
resilience as an organization to work together as a team to continue to serve our members and to provide you the support you deserve.
It has made us think outside the box resulting in creative and innovative ways to provide care to our patients, to teach the new generation of
students, to sustain research endeavors and to provide continuing education events such as this year’s Convention.
COVID-19 has definitely illustrated how important and essential audiologists and speech-language pathologists are in our various work settings.
Each and every one of us have been pushed to the limits and had to adapt on a daily basis. With face masks, face shields, teletherapy,
furloughs and the temporary closing of many of our workplaces, we have had to find a way to continue forward with a sense of grace,
diligence and the power of flexibility.
This year’s Convention will no doubt look different than ever before but thanks to your commitment, adaptability, flexibility, creativity and
teamwork, it will continue to be an event that provides opportunities for high-quality continuing education and networking, albeit if it is in-
person, virtual or a combination of each.
We are excited to have a past president of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association, Shari Robertson, as our keynote speaker.
She will kick off this year’s Convention by highlighting the importance of teamwork within the professions of audiology and speech-
language pathology. You will also not want to miss our luncheon speaker, Kentucky’s own Joel Katte, who will discuss the need for love and
compassion in our profession and beyond.
Our general sessions will include hot topics such as telehealth, advocacy, apraxia, early intervention, pediatric feeding, COVID and
dysphagia, dementia, hands-on voice therapy and trauma informed care.
We are humbled and excited to be able to have this year’s Convention and we look forward to seeing each of you whether in-person or
virtually. We are proud to be a part of this organization and proud to be #TeamKSHA. Thank you for all that you do to support our beloved
professions and thank you for being a part of this tremendous team.
