Letter: May isn't just for hearing loss We posted a story on Columbia Magazine on Friday about Gov. Andy Beshear and the Kentucky Commission on the Deaf and Hard of Hearing encouraging people to learn the signs of hearing loss and to seek care during Better Hearing and Speech Month. While the Governor's communication focused specifically on hearing loss, one of our local Speech Language Pathologists has pointed out that the awareness campaign has now evolved to include everyone who has any sort of speech, language, hearing or communication impairment. The National Association for Hearing and Speech Action (NAHSA) announced in July of last year that "starting in 2024, May will be recognized as National Speech-Language-Hearing Month instead of Better Hearing and Speech Month." The new goal of the 50-plus-year-old campaign is to raise awareness for those who have any speech, language, hearing or communication impairments, whether that be a hearing impairment or other communication deficit (i.e. aphasia, dysarthria, language impairment, voice impairment, fluency disorder, or speech sound production impairment). The ASHA says, "May a month of educating the public about the importance of human communication and what we can all do to prevent and address communication disorders."
