Giving Voice Aotearoa interview with Sally Kedge, Speech-language Therapist. Giving Voice Aotearoa is being run by the New Zealand Speech-language Therapists’ Association (NZSTA) and aims to make New Zealand more communication accessible by helping organisations understand how they can include all Kiwis in everyday communication. The New Zealand Speech-Language Therapists Association NZSTA, represents the profession of Speech-language Therapy in Aotearoa, as well as providing awareness and advocacy for those affected by communication and related swallowing conditions. Speech-language Therapists work with people everyday who experience communication difficulties, they share their frustrations, their pain, their social isolation, and their fears, and they work hard to provide them with a voice, involving regaining their own or supplementing with other forms of communication.
