💬 A big thank-you to Conway Parks and Recreation for installing new communication boards at our local parks! 🌳

These boards help support members of our community with cognitive and communication challenges — and they’re also a great reminder that there are many ways we all communicate with friends, both old and new. 💙

Together, we’re building a more inclusive, welcoming Conway for everyone! 🙌

We are excited to announce that our new communication boards have been installed at Laurel Park and 5th Avenue Park! Smarty Symbols Communication Boards create a symbol library that truly represents humanity, giving every child a window and mirror to a world where everyone belongs.

🎬 Class Beyond the Classroom! 🎬

Our 2nd-year graduate students in the AAC class, led by Dr. Jeff Adams, took learning outside the traditional walls a few weeks ago by attending the 2025 Inclusion Film Camp Premiere! 🌟

At the premiere, students viewed short films created by campers earlier this year—each showcasing what camp looks like through their own experiences and lens.

This unique opportunity allowed our students to see the power of communication, creativity, and inclusion in action—values that lie at the heart of both AAC and our profession. 💜

💜 A huge thank you to Christina Gonzalez, M.A., M.S., CCC-SLP (pictured far right), Speech-Language Pathologist with Conway Public Schools, for sharing her expertise with our undergraduate seniors!

Christina led an engaging session on how to analyze variations in treatment and evaluation procedures in response to differences across population groups—an essential skill for future clinicians working with diverse clients and communities. 🌎✨

We’re so grateful for professionals like Christina who give their time to help prepare our students for the real-world challenges and rewards of clinical practice. 🌟

🩺 Hands-On Learning in the Nabholz Simulation Lab 🩺

Our 2nd-year graduate students are diving into their medical module, gaining critical experience for working in acute care settings. This week, they practiced:
🔹 Navigating the basics of trach care
🔹 Adjusting hospital beds for comfort and safety
🔹 Setting up and checking equipment like suction
🔹 Ensuring patient safety in fast-paced environments

These simulation opportunities give our students the confidence and skills they’ll need as future SLPs in medical settings—bridging the gap between the classroom and the clinic. 💜

We’re so proud of the dedication our students show as they prepare to make a difference in healthcare!

🌟 Student Clinician Spotlight: Sidney Hyatt 🌟

This semester, Sidney is completing her school placement under the supervision of Karen Lock, M.S., CCC-SLP at Conway High School—and she’s already going above and beyond! 💜

Sidney has a client who is highly motivated to pass their driver’s test. To make therapy sessions more meaningful and engaging, Sidney actually took the driver’s test again herself! 🚗✨ This allowed her to design activities that tied directly to her client’s interests while targeting key language goals like:
🗣️ Vocabulary development
🔍 Comparing & contrasting
🧠 Recalling details
…and more!

We are so proud of Sidney for her creativity, dedication, and passion for making therapy relevant and motivating. We can’t wait to see the positive impact she’ll continue to have on her students and beyond! 💜
