Throughout 2023, we celebrated innovation by recognizing ASHA Innovators on social media, an initiative envisioned by 2023 ASHA Board President Robert M. Augustine, PhD, CCC-SLP.
Robert defined innovation as "the courage to pursue change when conditions present opportunities," and these 74 members from across the country embody that idea.
See how these members are making their mark on the field of communications sciences and disorders.
