President's Message

Welcome to CSAP! 2012 looks to be a great year for state association leadership.
CSAP is targeted just for you, the speech-language hearing association state leader. Our mission is to provide leadership training in a collaborative forum. Our speakers and topics are inspiring. When one attends a CSAP meeting, “networking” comes to mind.  Put together 60-80 communication professionals in one room, and there is a lot of information and new ideas being shared.

However, CSAP is more than our two annual meetings. Throughout the year, CSAP provides an on-line forum with our list-serve that enables us to reach out to other leaders. Our website has information on leadership, previous presentations at CSAP, and articles for your state association newsletters and a speaker’s bureau for your meetings. Don’t forget that 2011 teleseminars are available for telereplay. One of my goals as president, is to add to the on-line resources for our members.

I am looking forward to serving as president in 2012. This organization and its members, have been the most influential in my training as a leader.  I hope it will do the same for you.
