The ACU Speech Pathology, Social Work, and Dietetics/Nutrition programs are partnering with Hope Speaks this summer. What a blessing to partner in service with this fantastic organization!

🙌WHO WE ARE🙌
began in 2017 as an endeavor to provide essential speech therapy to children living in low-resourced communities in Uganda. Since then, the organization has grown to include two outreach centers (in Katanga & Kasokoso), and a clinic in Muyenga, while also providing these much needed services to other disability-focused organizations and schools.

The team now includes multiple Speech and Language Therapists, Social Workers, and Interns, all with the aim to give a voice to children living with disabilities in Uganda.

This flag, which once hung in ’s Sewell Auditorium, is a beautiful tribute to students and alumni who wore the military uniforms of the U.S. during WWII. Each star represented one of those who served. When the university received word of a death, the star was changed from blue to gold. Of the 1,088 stars, 40 were gold.

Today, we honor those who sacrificed all for our freedom. 🇺🇸

Second year students Brittanee and Josselyn are at Hendrick Bone and Joint this week. They are getting experience in a Physical Therapy clinic and seeing how Athletic Trainers can function in that setting.
A special thanks to Erin Dorrel, PT that has been with us for 5 years. Today was her last day at HBJ. She is moving to Oklahoma!
