What type of participants are specifically invited to LOUD Crowd groups?

The correct answer focuses on individuals who have completed the SPEAK OUT! program. LOUD Crowd groups are specifically designed for participants who have gone through SPEAK OUT! as these sessions provide ongoing support and practice opportunities for those who have already received training in speech techniques. By limiting participation to those who have completed the SPEAK OUT! program, the groups ensure that all attendees share a common foundation of skills, making the sessions more effective and allowing participants to build on what they have learned.

In contrast, the other groups do not have the specific training in speech techniques that LOUD Crowd emphasizes. Inviting anyone with speech disorders or the general public might dilute the effectiveness of the sessions, as participants could vary greatly in their levels of knowledge and training. Similarly, healthcare professionals, while important in the context of treatment, are not the focus of LOUD Crowd sessions, which are meant to empower individuals with direct experience in the SPEAK OUT! program.
