State Education Advocacy Leaders (SEALs) are appointed by ASHA recognized state speech-language-hearing associations to advocate on education issues. These issues may include:
SEALs can be audiologists or speech-language pathologists (SLPs).
Mission: To enhance and perpetuate the advocacy, leadership, and clinical management skills of school-based ASHA members at the state and local levels to influence administrative and public policy decisions that affect the delivery of speech-language pathology and audiology services in school settings.
Do you have an education issue in your state that needs to be addressed? Find your state’s SEAL below and e-mail them your concerns.
Are you interested in addressing a statewide or regional issue? SEALs Regional Champions work with school-based audiologists and SLPs to promote the valuable contributions you make in the schools!
For more information on SEALs activities in states, email Eileen Crowe, ASHA's Director for State Association Relations, at ECrowe@asha.org.
