Conference Goals are to:

clinicians interested in multicultural populations by providing
opportunities to network with experienced professionals.

3. Facilitate the timely dissemination of current research.

Proposals are invited for poster presentations for the conference.
The conference theme will be language, poverty, and culture.
Submissions on any topic related to cultural aspects of speech and

children and adults from multicultural backgrounds are welcome.

-	Fits on a free-standing, 4' x 8' tack panel
-	Title banner (readable from 15-20 feet away)
-	All text and graphics readable from six feet away
-	Both surfaces of each panel will be used, so you should not plan on

(drawings, graphs, charts, photos) and text.
-	Handouts are helpful to conference participants but are not
required.
