Rising Leaders
ASHA created its Rising Leaders program in 2016 to help advance the development of next-generation leaders for our profession. Board member companies may designate up to two individuals from your organization to be Rising Leaders. We encourage you to designate candidates who demonstrate unique leadership abilities, possess at least a few years of industry experience, and further promote diversity.
Benefits for Rising Leaders:
- Receive complimentary copies of most ASHA publications (including Special Issue Briefs, Seniors Housing Updates, and Research Reports).
- Complete access to our extensive online resource archive.
- Invitations to select events with other Rising Leaders.
