Belonging Ambassadors
At the Department of Communication Disorders, we are dedicated to advancing the principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion, in line with BYU's strategic plan and in collaboration with the BYU Committee on Race, Equity & Belonging, BYU Undergraduate Education, McKay School of Education, and the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association. To achieve this vision, we have introduced the Belonging Ambassador program by introducing two Belonging Ambassador positions, aimed at cultivating a diverse, equitable, and inclusive environment for all our students, faculty, and staff.
Our Belonging Ambassadors are committed to:
Promoting Inclusion and Belonging
Our Ambassadors actively work to foster a sense of belonging for historically under-represented groups within the Department of Communication Disorders. They recognize the importance of and need for diverse experiences and perspectives in our profession and are dedicated to addressing this need.
Enhancing Cultural Education
We believe that enhancing the cultural education experience of BYU students to meet the demands of society is paramount. Our Belonging Ambassadors play a crucial role in enhancing the cultural educational experience for our students, equipping them with the knowledge and skills to excel.
