Abstract
The Speech and Hearing Clinic in the Department of Speech and Hearing Sciences is a no-fee, donation-supported community clinic where students in Speech/Language Pathology and Audiology gain valuable clinical experience while providing much needed services to members of the community. Due to COVID-19, the Clinic has had to move all therapy and evaluation sessions online. It is clear that the use of telepractice for speech, language, and hearing evaluation and treatment will continue even when students return to the clinic in the next quarter or two. The use of telepractice increases the availability of our services to many more members of our community, and even beyond our local community. The Department of Speech & Hearing Sciences seeks to provide students with the needed equipment to effectively provide high quality, online services.
