A podcast for all SLPs by Bilingual SLPs. We are a group of multilingual multicultural Speech-Language Pathologists. We hope that our listeners can gain knowledge on issues surrounding cultural and linguistic diversity from a clinical perspective. Our friendship and this idea was built on the Clubhouse App - where we host conversations on the Bilingual SLP Club. Our goal is to center cultural and linguistic diversity in every conversation. You can find a closed captioned version of this podcast on our YouTube channel and we are also available on Apple Podcasts.
