University of Nebraska-Omaha
The University of Nebraska at Omaha (UNO), a metropolitan university, is committed to the SPEAK OUT! & LOUD Crowd program. Our speech-language pathology program is very thankful to have the support from the Parkison Voice Project to develop an online program to reach out to those patients with PD who live in distant areas of Nebraska and to reach out to those local patients who have mobility difficulties.
As a metropolitan university, the UNO Speech-Language Clinic provides services to many clients referred from major Nebraska hospitals (e.g., University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC) and Catholic Health Initiative (CHI) hospitals).
