It is through research that knowledge advances. It provides new ideas, the excitement of discovery, resolution of disorders, and direction for the future.
Public awareness is a goal the group takes seriously.
Raising the level of consciousness of the community to qualities and characteristics of the human voice is important. The beauty and stamina of the trained singing voice, and the desirability of a strong, clear speaking voice should be demonstrated to the community. We hope to make the public aware that a healthy, well- projected voice enhances communication and the quality of life. Refinements in the diagnosis of voice disorders is our continuing goal. The group may also recommend and monitor specific treatment.
