In this multi-week assignment starting on 03/10/2026, you’ll conduct comprehensive assessments, design evidence-based therapy plans, deliver engaging interventions, and monitor progress to optimize outcomes. Whether you’re specializing in pediatric language development, articulation, fluency, or adult neurogenic communication and swallowing disorders, your role will be central to helping patients reconnect with confidence and independence. California’s diverse landscapes and vibrant communities provide the backdrop for your professional impact—and in your downtime you can explore iconic redwood forests, world-class beaches, renowned wine country, and the cultural treasures of Silicon Valley. San Jose itself offers a dynamic blend of innovation and community, with beautiful neighborhoods, parks, restaurants, and a mild year-round climate that makes outdoor therapy and family-centered care a natural fit. This state’s beauty is matched by the possibilities you’ll find in your work, from coastlines to canyons to bustling urban neighborhoods.
