Our mission is to educate a scholarly practitioner who is broadly trained across the scope of practice and who is grounded in the research base of our discipline and profession.
Our Vision
The vision of the Mysak Clinic is to improve the lives of individuals with communication and swallowing disorders through excellence in teaching, research, and interprofessional clinical service to the community.
Support Us
Supporting the Mysak Center means directly investing in access, opportunity, and connection for individuals with communication challenges. Donations help sustain vital clinical services, innovative programming, and hands-on training for future speech-language pathologists. They allow us to provide high-quality, person-centered care while keeping services accessible to those who need them most. Every contribution, no matter the size, helps empower individuals to communicate more effectively, participate more fully in their communities, and improve their overall quality of life.
