NAA Speaker Connections – Match program

The NAA, being the nation’s nonprofit resource for families impacted by aphasia, is often contacted for speakers to talk to businesses, healthcare departments, university classes, support groups and other gatherings.  Sometimes they are looking for a person with aphasia, or someone who is a care partner, and other times they would like a NAA staff member or Ambassador.  We have created this Speaker Match program to help fill that need!

If you are interested in finding a speaker for an event, fill out the form below.  We will get back in touch with you with options aligned with your particular needs.
