Wellness Series: Communication and Cognition

Speech Pathologist and University of Arizona professor, Janet Hawley, MS, CCC-SLP, will cover the topics of communication and cognition, as well as swallowing issues related to Parkinson’s disease. She will address not only the challenges that arise in these areas, but strategies to compensate and be successful despite them.  Janet will also discuss two available treatment programs aimed at increasing the level of effort and intentionality of speech output to increase vocal loudness and clarity of speech.
