ADVOCACY A decade of advocacy delivers: Medicare expanded for speech pathology After more than 10 years of sustained advocacy, SPA has secured a landmark reform that will significantly improve access to speech pathology services for children and young people across Australia. This change will come into effect from 1 March, with the Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS) M10 group expanding to include stuttering, speech sound disorders, and cleft lip and/or palate, enabling Medicare-rebated assessment and treatment for eligible children and young people under 25.

You should not be allowed to be a medical professional if you look me dead in the face and say "yeah, selective mutism and apraxia are the same thing". Babe, those are two separate diagnoses... #apraxia #mutism

Every month since June 1998 Speechwoman has selected a speech-language pathology / speech and language therapy related site of the month. Sometimes it is not so much a site, as a research article or a page, blog entry or resource within a site that is worthwhile celebrating here. If they wish, awardees may display the Speechwoman logo on their winning site, post, page or resource (scroll down for two versions of the logo). Warm congratulations to all Speechwoman's winners, including those whose hard work has "gone" from the Internet! 2025 Sites of the Month December Open Access Henry, M., & Bent, T. (2025).

Such powerful information-this is why we can’t afford to wait for children’s speech to “catchup” (if it ever does- #apraxia #dysarthria)

#AJSLP study findings reveal gaps in early-intervention SLPs' knowledge/practices re. chilidhood #apraxia of speech (CAS). Hesitation to diagnose or disclose CAS in young children may delay appropriate intervention. https://on.asha.org/4pAaxS6
