The Speech-Language Pathology (SLP) Graduate Program in the School of Health Sciences and Human Performance (HSHP) has been recognized by speechpathologymastersprograms.com as an SLP Program Promoting Transgender Access to Care.

Given that only 23% of speech-language pathology students feel comfortable offering services to transgender needs, speechpathologymastersprograms.com recognizes those programs who are making sure that students have the opportunity to learn how to care for this under-served population.

The IC SLP program's efforts to include transgender voice therapy in the clinic, classroom, and research help prepare students to increase access to these services around the country after they graduate, making it easier for transgender people to safely find their authentic voice!
