We are people who understand life with a voice disorder, because we either live with one, have close experience of supporting someone who does, or work in the field of voice health. Why the Network? The Australian Dysphonia Network Inc, was established in 2016 to support people whose lives are impacted by a voice disorder, because regardless of the underlying diagnosis or cause....voice disorders can impact on every aspect of daily life. Despite the magnitude of impact, they are poorly diagnosed, and even more poorly understood by the general population. We hope to link people who are interested in keeping the conversations going... to 'talk about talking' and to raise awareness of the dysphonia as a very real issue that is valued alongside hearing or vision loss.
