The Importance of Representation, Advocacy, and Mentorship within Our Fields with Jarrold Jackson


Listen Later

Guest: Jerrold Jackson, MA, CCC-SLP - In this episode, Michelle is joined by Jerrold Jackson, who embodies the meaning of servant-led leadership. His compassion for colleagues and students is abundant. This heartfelt conversation, which definitely exceeds our hour-long average, gets to the core of what it means to serve one another and our field as advocates, mentors, and sponsors and how to do so with joy and hope. Jerrold shares his personal walk as a black male speech-language pathologist, how mentors shaped his life, how, through their representation in the field and now his, conversations have been held, advocacy has occurred, and desperately needed policy changes have resulted.
