Summary: In this SIG 2 activity, participants explore the needs of people with aphasia and other cognitive-communication impairments as they interact with the legal system. The first article is a systematic review that reviews the historic accommodations that have been made to support people with aphasia during court proceedings. Using these, the article provides proactive recommendations for the support of people with aphasia who are involved with legal proceedings. The second article discusses the etiologies and prevalence of cognitive-communication disorders in people who are involved in the criminal justice system. Recommendations are provided for SLPs to participate as a part of the interdisciplinary team working with these youth and adults.

Summary: This SIG 5 Perspectives course contains articles that discuss the psychosocial impacts of craniofacial care on patients and their caregivers.

Summary: This SIG 16 activity includes recent research that focuses on providing SLPs with strategies to implement research-based and evidence-based interventions in schools. Articles examine training in research-based behavioral interventions and their implementation; the shift from a reactive, practitioner-based model of support in assistive technology to a proactive, team-based coaching model for students with complex communication needs; and the challenges and opportunities school-based SLPs face regarding the implementation of research-based interventions within multitiered systems of support (MTSS).

Summary: This SIG 1 activity focuses on how speech sound disorders (SSDs) can have an impact on children’s literacy skills and development. The first article describes the phonological awareness (PA) skills of children with SSDs and compares the relationships between types of speech errors to strengths and weaknesses in their phonological awareness abilities. The second article is a tutorial that aims to provide evidence that supports the use of print and print referencing in speech therapy sessions with children who have SSDs. The third article examines the available evidence for intervention frameworks that support literacy skill development, specifically within the context of SSD intervention. The fourth article reviews why SSDs put children at risk for word reading difficulties and how speech-language pathologists can integrate foundational skills to reduce this risk.

Summary: While clinicians may know the fundamentals of evidence-based practice (EBP), many struggle to implement EBP in real-world situations with their clients. Often, this is due to limited research, a lack of high-quality research, or the absence of a clear takeaway from external scientific literature. In this course, participants will learn more about these obstacles and strategies to overcome them. Learning how to navigate these barriers will assist clinicians in making patient-centered and evidence-based clinical decisions. This course is the third in a series of micro courses on Evidence-Based Decision-Making, which use clinical scenario activities to help you to sharpen your EBP skills.

Summary: SLPs and audiologists alike may struggle to implement evidence-based practice (EBP) into their daily practice because they simply don’t have the time or resources to keep up with a rapidly growing research base. ASHA’s Evidence Maps serve as a time-saving, free, online tool that provides clinicians with a quick synopsis of synthesized research related to clinical practice. New and experienced users of the Evidence Maps will learn the ins and outs of features and navigation via a case study and guided practice to better locate and assess relevant research evidence to integrate into clinical decision-making.
