About RESOUND)))

RESOUND))) is the official Publication of the Association. During the September 2021 Board of Directors retreat, a motion was put forth and affirmed to change the name RESOUND))) to RESOUND))): AN OFFICIAL PUBLICATION OF THE NATIONAL BLACK ASSOCIATION FOR SPEECH-LANGUAGE-AND HEARING. Prior to this, RESOUND))) was the official newsletter of the Association, and is as old as the organization. The first publication was in 1979. The newsletter, originally, combined both member information and research articles, until it was decided to separate the research section into a formal journal. Originally, it was called ECHO. Now it is known as the Journal of the National Black Association for Speech-Language and Hearing (JNBASLH).

RESOUND))) highlights member, Affiliate, and Association news, as well as calendar events. To make sure all segments of the Association are included, the Student, Seasoned Member, Affiliates and Audiology Corners highlight news and information, specifically, for those various groups. Association members, such as family members, are also frequently highlighted, since NBASLH has strong support of members’ families. The goals are:

1. To create a sense of community among all segments of the Association;
