Jessica Abel is an SLP from the state of New York with leadership experience as a speech-language pathologist , campus assistant principal, and a district-wide multidisciplinary leader. Jessica shares how SLPs are uniquely positioned to create meaningful change for all students. Nathalie, Judy, and Jessica share how innovation in public education must be based on "real talk" between clinicians, district decision-makers, and families while always keeping hope for improvement front-and-center in our minds. Jessica shares how using challenging situations (a.k.a. past examples of bad leadership) can mold you into the type of change-maker you want to be.
