A chance to win Emerald VIP Lounge Check-in for the 2026 PSHA Convention!

It is time to start thinking about National Speech-Language-Hearing Month (NSLHM) for 2026 and we need your help! PSHA sponsors a coloring, drawing, and essay contest for school-age students across the Commonwealth. Each year, the entries are based on a member-submitted slogan. We suggest that the Convention and NLSHM slogan are similar or connected.

The theme for the 2026 Convention is Navigating Uncharted Waters. Please send your NSLHM slogan ideas to VPPublicInfo@psha.org. The slogan contest winner will receive a complimentary upgrade to Emerald VIP Lounge Check-in to add to their convention hotel booking. This package includes a welcome treats and surprises upon arrival, personalized check-in, daily access to concierge-level service, and more!

December 3rd is the International Day of Persons with Disabilities. Today, we celebrate the truth that disabilities never limit potential. This post highlights some of the amazing individuals in the Marywood NSSLHA community—and their loved ones—who remind us that disabilities are only one part of someone’s story. We are proud to honor their abilities, achievements, and the joy they bring to our community.

The Department of Education has proposed a definition of “professional degree” under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act that excludes audiology and speech-language pathology—despite our fields requiring master’s and doctoral-level clinical education.

This would limit students to $100,000 in lifetime loans instead of the $200,000 allowed for other health professions.

The impact on Pennsylvania?
❗Fewer students able to enter the field
❗Worsening workforce shortages
❗Reduced access to essential communication and hearing services

PSHA stands with ASHA in urging the Department to revise this definition.
