Thank you for sitting and sharing with me today, @Diverslt. So many wonderful discussions being had with pediatric SLTs! I'm still looking for SLT participants who may have black or brown children on their caseload! Send me a dm!

[DiverSLT_Network @DiverSLT]

Just met with the lovely #slt2b @Twisted_Kimmy to support with her dissertation project. It is great to see so many more #diverse dissertation topics in SLT.

If you are a paediatric #SLT working in or around the London area, please support.

We need to recognise communities as sources of knowledge production, not spaces of data extraction.
