Notifications of acceptance/nonacceptance will be emailed to ALL authors listed on each proposal on July 16, 2026. Please contact us as soon as possible at papers@asha.org if you do not receive your notification on July 16.
All sessions are final as accepted. We are unable to honor requests for changes to session format, switches from a virtual format to in person, or date and time changes for in-person sessions once the schedule has been finalized. If you need to withdraw your presentation, please send written notification to papers@asha.org as soon as possible.
The Author/Presenter Management Center is your primary resource for viewing all email notifications, upcoming tasks, and special instructions related to the Call for Papers. It is also where you should log in to complete or update your required agreements and disclosure forms. A personalized link for the site is included in the disclosure notification each author (either presenting or non-presenting) received after their proposal was submitted.
If you submitted a proposal but are not an author, the Call for Papers submission website also allows you to view the proposals that you have submitted, as well as any related notifications that have been emailed to you after the Call for Papers has closed.
