New Caucus focused on Middle Eastern Cultures and Languages

  • 1.  New Caucus focused on Middle Eastern Cultures and Languages

    Dear Fellow members,

    I am interested in spearheading the creation of a new Multicultural Constituency Group (Caucus) with a focused interest on Middle Eastern Languages and Culture. I am seeking a minimum of 15 ASHA members and/or CSD students who are interested. If you are interested, kindly complete the google form below:

    EXPRESS YOUR INTEREST IN MIDDLE EAST CAUCUS

    The Multicultural Constituency Groups are caucus' that have formed independent of and from ASHA. They are comprised of ASHA members and CSD students. As a group, they create by-laws and function independently.  Here are some resources that may be of interest as you consider this possibility.
