This week on Fix SLP, Dr. Jeanette Benigas, SLP, and Preston Lewis, MS/SLP, call out the emotional and professional fallout from the Praxis exam scandal, the profession’s empathy deficit, and what the response reveals about the culture of speech-language pathology. They discuss how shame and judgment are being used to gatekeep the field, what really happened with the 180 impacted students, and what Fix SLP is doing to investigate and support those caught in the storm. Plus: how to prepare for the upcoming CCC renewal deadline and why this is a moment for reflection, action, and change.
