For many living with ALS, speech and swallowing changes may be the first symptoms experienced and can impact many aspects of living with ALS. Join Kristin Larsen, MA, CCC-SLP, Speech and Language Pathologist at Northwestern Medicine, who will present at our August ALS Learning Series program.

This webinar will discuss various ways ALS can impact your speech and swallowing. We will focus on early identification of symptoms, provide helpful tips including tongue and respiratory exercises along with voice banking and communication aid options. Knowing what to expect as your symptoms change can help you make well-informed and timely decisions to communicate and swallow safely for as long as possible.
