The 2020 ASHA Convention has been cancelled....We are sorry to announce that the 2020 ASHA Convention, scheduled for November 19–21 in San Diego, California, has been cancelled. We have made this difficult decision in partnership with our host, San Diego.
We had initially remained hopeful that we would be able to hold our annual event. After working closely with our San Diego partners, however, we have mutually determined that we cannot meet the new rules and regulations required to produce the Convention in a way that ensures the safety of all participants.
There will not be a digital or virtual 2020 ASHA Convention to replace the cancelled in-person event. We know how much many of you look forward to the Convention each year, and how much the learning and networking will be missed. With that in mind, we are exploring solutions to help meet the needs of our members, as well as our exhibitors and sponsors, and will provide updates as our plans come together.
