Reimagining From Abroad: Speech-Language Pathologists as Interprofessional Partners Supporting Justice-Involved Youth in America
CONCLUSIONS: There is an opportunity to embed speech-language pathology services from intake into court action and through disposition for JIY with cognitive-communication impairments. This includes interprofessional education and development, SLPs providing direct intervention, and multidisciplinary screening efforts.
