Your program committee has been working hard to engage some great speakers for this fall’s conference.  We’ll be at the new Salem Convention Center this year, and the conference will take place October 10th and 11th.  Our speakers this year include Betsy Crais of the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill, who will discuss language intervention with infants and toddlers; Brian Goldstein from Temple University, who will discuss phonological disorders in culturally and linguistically diverse populations; and Michelle G. Winner, discussing social communication.  For those of you who work with adults, we are in the process of putting together a full program, presented by Oregon VA alums!

In this newsletter, you’ll find the call for papers.  If you have something you’d like to share with your colleagues from across the state, please consider submitting a presentation.  If you have any questions about the submissions process, please do not hesitate to contact us by phone or mail.  So, please send in those submissions and we look forward to seeing you in Salem this fall!
