Stephanie Boron serves as a Clinical Assistant Professor in the Department of Communication Sciences & Disorders at the School of Communication. As a dedicated pediatric Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP), she focuses on creating safe, inclusive spaces for neurodivergent clients and their families through neurodiversity-affirming clinical practices.

• Advocacy for Neurodivergent Populations
• Autism spectrum support
• Childhood Development and Education frameworks
• Diversity, Equity and Inclusion implementation
