​About Us

The National Student Speech-Language-and Hearing Association (NSSLHA) is a student organization for Communication Sciences and Disorders majors and non-majors. Locally it provides opportunities for students to interact with others interested in the fields of Speech-Language Pathology and/or Audiology, to do volunteer work, and to explore issues that affect them as students and pre-professionals. NSSLHA tries to get students involved in community activities as well as within-major activities to prepare for future careers in the Health and Human Sciences profession.
