ASHA’s Take Action website helps you take part in virtual advocacy by contacting state and federal elected official on issues impacting audiology and speech-language pathology, as well as those we serve.
You Hold the Power
ASHA members have the strongest voice when it comes to advocacy. As an audiologist, speech-language pathologist, or student, you have the expertise to talk about the legislative and policy issues that impact you and those you serve. You're also a constituent with voting power—your legislators depend on your vote for their election. That's why it's important for you to tell your elected officials how legislation affects you.
Let Your Voice Be Heard
Support ASHA’s efforts by sending prewritten messages (that can be personalized!) to your elected officials.
- Yes, I want to take action by emailing elected officials in my state.
- Yes, I want to take action by emailing elected officials on federal issues impacting audiology and speech-language pathology across the county.
