Fostering queer diversity in the speech pathology profession S06 E21

In this week’s episode we speak with Kathryn Fordyce (she/they), Sandy Lin (she/they), Cyndal Nelson (they/them), and Dr Robert Wells (he/him) who are members of the Queer Speech Collective. They discuss the dimensions of identity, aspects of a professional group identity or “mould” that can be problematic, the importance of a workforce that transcends the mould, and how the profession can foster queer diversity.
