APRIL 29, 2008

The 2008 Day at the Capitol was a HUGE success as over 200 SLPs and Audiologists from across the state converged on Louisiana's Capitol!

SLPs and Audiologist from Parishes across the state were ready for action!

Ready are not, here we come!

 

Legislators from every district in Louisiana heard from over 200 SLPs and Audiologists.

Can you believe?

SLPs and AUDs from all over the state came to celebrate May is Better Hearing and Speech Month and educate Legislators. It was a true success!

Please follow this link http://house.louisiana.gov/H_Video/2008/Apr2008.htm and go to April 29, Appropriations, to view the video from the Appropriations Committee meeting where testimony for funding ACT 952 was heard.

Legislating is hard work!
