About ISHA Advocacy Day 


Each year, SLPs and AUDs from across the state join together to advocate on behalf of the profession and patients in Iowa. This is a great way to get involved in the Legislative process, meet with colleagues and work to better the practice environment in the state.



You will have the opportunity to meet with YOUR legislators one-on-one or in groups, with others in your district.  This process allows you to educate your state leaders and express your concerns and what's most important to our profession.

Now is the time for everyone to identify your Representative and Senator and make contact with them.  It is crucial to start a relationship with these individuals now - before there is any specific piece of legislation that you contact them about.

Additionally, ISHA employs lobbyists to help with the legislative process.

2021 ISHA's Advocacy Day was virtual!

On March 4, we held an education discussion with lobbyist Kate Walton and learned about ISHA's legislative priorities from Rachael Suddarth,
President , and Sarah Chaney, VP of Government, Colleges, and Universities . During the legislative town hall portion, Representative Brent Siegrist shared information about the legislative process as well as advice for effective advocacy.
