What is The Bold SLPÂ Collective up to?
Summer 2024
Four-Week Continuing Education Course
Solutions to Prevent Harm in Bilingual
& Multicultural Evaluations
We are continuing our partnership with SLP Nerdcast to offer a four-week course in Summer 2024 titled Solutions and Strategies to Prevent Harm in Bilingual and Multicultural Evaluations. Join us, the founders of the Bold SLP Collective, as we guide you in understanding the limitations of traditional evaluation methods and how to respectfully work with clients who come from different backgrounds and may not share your lived experiences. This course will provide you with a strong starting point to begin providing culturally responsive evaluations and treatment. You will leave with clinically applicable skills of self-reflection, ethnographic interviewing, and dynamic assessment.
Beyond Bilingualism: Rebalancing the evidence-based practice triangle (Part 2)
This follow-up episode with the candid clinicians of The Bold SLP podcast is the perfect companion to their first talk about cultural and linguistic competence. This one takes a deeper dive into how speech-language professionals can adjust the angle of their EBP triangle to better identify and support students from diverse backgrounds. Understanding how to adapt your assessment and intervention approach with the clinical preferences and culture of your clients at the core is a key skill for every SLP serving clients from 0-99, across all practice settings. You’ll hear some familiar terms in this value packed course-including dynamic assessment and the evidence based practice triangle- each with a cultural competence spin.
Beyond Bilingualism: The Role of Culture in Speech-Language Pathology (Part 1)
You just can’t separate language from culture, and that is what makes this week’s episode a must-listen for every practicing SLP, around the globe.  Joined by the vibrant voices behind The Bold SLP podcast,  Kate and Amy seek to better understand issues related to culture and bilingualism in our ever-changing professional landscape.
Beam!
Bilingual Empowerment through Allied Mentorship SLP Program
This program started on Instagram and grew through organic connections among Bilingual SLPs from coast to coast. A group of colleagues came together wanting to give back and reach out to future Bilingual SLPs and the Beam SLP Program was born! Ingrid, Desi, and Liza are mentors for Beam and have been a part of this program since 2021.
