Inspiring the next generation of healthcare professionals starts with mentorship. Kasandra Onzures, a first-year graduate student, and Rebecca Lattimore, a faculty member, recently participated in the Rural Healthcare Summer Camp in Alpine, Texas, where they served as counselors and mentors for 28 high school students from rural communities. Through sharing their experiences and promoting the field of speech-language pathology, they helped students explore healthcare career pathways and learn about opportunities to serve rural and underserved populations. 🏜️

Through their leadership, mentorship, and passion for the profession, Kasandra and Rebecca helped raise awareness about the important role speech-language pathologists play in serving diverse populations. Their efforts even inspired several students to express interest in pursuing careers in speech-language pathology! 💬✏️

We are proud to see members of our program representing the profession, advocating for speech-language pathology, and encouraging the next generation of healthcare professionals. Thank you, Kasandra and Rebecca, for making a meaningful impact on these future leaders! ⭐️
