The information was very interesting and relevant in our political climate. I will be more mindful about working with individuals and families that have different cultural backgrounds and beliefs. However in the area where I live and practice, I have never experienced working with a forced immigrant.

The.course content did not to me seem particularly applicable to clinical practice. It made the case for the need for culturally and linguistically sensitive care, but I was expecting to learn about the neurodevelopmental impact of trauma among migrants on communication development, and I did not feel this course addressed that topic.

by

It took more than 10 minutes for the actual listed content to start. The information was not helpful and was often specific to Malta, which is not applicable to most of us given that Malta has a population of about half a million

It made me think of my role as a SLP with migrant children, which is a role I haven't thought about. The presenter brought up some excellent points and I specifically appreciated hearing what the migrant community would like more of: language and literacy in English and/or the native language of the host country, access to jobs/job opportunities. Those are two very practical needs that as an SLP I have training to help migrant families with! This made me excited :)

I was looking for more information regarding how the effects of migration relate to ACE's and impact on communication development. I felt I already understood the information in the presentation, and the challenges migrants face in a new country, culture and/or religion and the SLP's role in supporting these children. This was definitely a good review, but a lot was related to systemic challenges.

It would have been more helpful to have content that contained specific experiences, specific examples of migrant situations how they were helped, how help was attempted. What do these dynamic assessments look like? I found the content to be very vague.

The course focused heavily on policies and procedure discussion that did not seem to be relevant to the overall topic of trauma. 75% of the course discussed those policies/procedures without in-depth discussion of traumatic events that population. 25% of the course then attempted to shed light on how to interact with those families. I think this course could have been summarized and delivered in a different way. I also don't care for references to political issues/debates, and I felt that there were strong undertones of that as well.
