Outstanding Leadership Award

GO SSLP would like to honor the dedication and hard work of not only SLP’s who may or may not carry a case load but those who demonstrate excellence in leading.

  • Development of professional learning and continuing education needs to support effective therapeutic practices (ex. in-services, team meetings, etc.). Demonstrate responsiveness to the needs of the group of SLPs they lead.
  •  Support with due process procedures and guidance for both county and state mandates. Demonstrate vision and goal setting practices for the speech-language department they lead to ensure best practices among their district.

GOSSLP is currently seeking nominations for qualified candidates that exhibit these “Excellence in Leadership” qualities in both ethical and professional practices.
