Congratulations to Dawn Merth-Johnson, WSHA Past President and longtime volunteer, on receiving the ASHA 2024 Dorothy Dreyer Award for Volunteerism.   

The Dorothy Dreyer Award for Volunteerism may be given annually to one individual who has made significant and outstanding volunteer contributions to ASHA and serves as a model of volunteerism to others. Individuals may be nominated for exceptional contributions that have had subsequent impact on the professions, ASHA members, and clients. These contributions may have occurred over a defined period of time or over a period of many years and may include service on various ASHA committees, boards, councils, Board of Directors, and/or the ASHFoundation.

WSHA is also proud of Dr. John Heilmann, Dr. Thomas Sather, Dr. Audra Sterling who received ASHA Fellowship.

Fellowship is one of the highest honors the Association bestows. To be awarded Fellow, the nominee must have made outstanding contributions to the discipline of communication sciences and disorders.
