Good evening! We have another advocacy update that we are happy to share with you. Senate Bill 111 (an act related to coverage for the treatment of stuttering) passed today in the House. Thank you, KSHA members, for all of your advocacy efforts. You make a difference!

[KSHA @KYSPEECH]

Two advocacy updates from today:

First, the stipend for those with their CCCs is in the Senate budget and will remain in the final budget!

Second, SB111 passed committee and will now head to the House floor for a vote (contact your legislators to support). Thank you, @MKG14!

A huge thank you to Friday’s Luncheon Speaker, Tiffany Hammond, for sharing your personal experience as an autistic mother parenting two autistic children. A parent perspective is so important to hear. Tiffany’s book, A Day With No Words, is a NYT #1 Bestseller.
