Advocating for Change

We advocate on behalf of our members in private practice, schools, early intervention, and medical settings and consistently work toward improvements in reimbursement and removing barriers to accessing care. SCSHA leadership meets with policy makers at the highest level to promote legislative and policy change for the good of patients served by SC SLPs and Audiologists, with the help of a lobbyist.

Lots of CE Opportunities

You will find a list of association events on our website, I hope that you will go ahead and mark your calendar now, so that you don’t miss anything. Thanks again for your membership investment with SCSHA again this year. Continuing education offered by SCSHA is accepted by SC LLR for license renewal, and SCSHA also submits CEU requests to the ASHA CEU program as a member benefit. In 2024, we offered more than 27 CE hours (2.7 ASHA hrs) including Ethics and Supervisory hours and cultural competence (DEI) hours. We also partnered with Hanen to make even more CE available to our members!


New Partner Program

This year, SCSHA is proud to announce our new SCSHA Partners Program. This program was created to provide a means for organizations to market themselves to SLPs and Students! We are thankful for our 2024 Gold Partner: Carolina Therapeutics and Bronze Partner: MUSC College of Health Professions. We are offering the Partner program in 2025!
