32 people died in ICE custody last year — the agency’s deadliest year in over two decades.

Meanwhile, private prison corporations that are building and overseeing ICE detention centers are raking it in.

353 Winners in 27 Years! Every month since June 1998 Speechwoman has selected a speech-language pathology / speech and language therapy related site of the month.

If they wish, awardees may display the Speechwoman logo on their winning site, post, page or resource (scroll down for two versions of the logo). Warm congratulations to all Speechwoman's winners, including those whose hard work has "gone" from the Internet! November FREE and DELICIOUS!
