8 Speak Out
June 2014
Speech Pathology Australia
speech pathology week 2014
Building an Australia where communication in
all its forms is recognised and valued.
SPWeek 2014
‘
Nation for Communication
’ is our chance
to celebrate communication and speech pathology!
The International Communication Project 2014 is in full
swing: you’ve read about the project, you’ve signed
the ICP2014 Pledge and you’ve taken a picture with an
“I communicate” sign. Now it’s time to share it with your
community.
During SPWeek, we will provide you with activity ideas,
resources and promotional items to demonstrate the
impact communication disorders have on people’s lives,
as well as highlight the difference speech pathologists
make in clients’ lives.
Visit the Campaign Resources section of
to start planning how you can
share the message. Promotional packs will be available
to order from
1 July
($10 to help cover postage costs).
Got a good story?
Each year we illustrate the importance of
communication and speech pathology through the
media. We’re looking for clients, clinicians and family
members to act as media spokespeople, to share their
story of communication and why it is important that we
build an Australia that is a nation for communication.
If you are interested, or have someone in mind, email
for
more information.
