MSHA is proud to announce that Senator Elizabeth Warren has accepted a Lifetime Membership in MSHA. As part of Better Hearing and Speech Month MSHA reached out to Senator Warren to bestow the privilege of Lifetime Membership in recognition of her early interest in the field of speech pathology. 

In 1970, Warren graduated from the University of Houston with a Bachelor’s degree in speech pathology and audiology. This made her the first member of her immediate family to graduate from college. Subsequently, she worked as a speech pathologist in Riverdale, New Jersey for a year, until her pregnancy became visible. She recalls, “back in those days, that meant you didn’t get invited back. That’s how it was.”

MSHA also thanked Senator Warren for her ongoing efforts to protect consumers. As a Lifetime Member, Senator Warren will receive complimentary newsletters and professional updates.
