Leading speech pathology researcher hopes to help change the world

CSU News 16 APRIL 2021 Dr Kate Crowe shares how her biggest aspiration is that her research and work to support multilingual learners who are Deaf and hard of hearing is contributing to a change in the world where being deaf is a difference in ability, not a disability.
