StartDate: 8/17/2026
Available Shifts: 7.5 D
Pay Rate: $1865.00 - $1921.00
Begin your speech-language pathology career in an SLP-CFY position in Crown Point, Indiana, a welcoming community known for its historic downtown, friendly neighborhoods, and easy access to both Lake Michigan and Chicago. This SLP Clinical Fellowship Year opportunity is ideal for new graduates seeking a strong professional foundation in a supportive, collaborative environment while enjoying a high quality of life and more affordable housing than many larger metropolitan areas.
Crown Point offers a vibrant yet relaxed lifestyle. You can explore the charming town square with its local shops, cafes, and restaurants, attend seasonal festivals and farmers markets, and enjoy miles of walking and biking trails in nearby parks. Residents appreciate the proximity to Lake County parks, golf courses, and recreational areas, as well as quick day trips to the beaches along Lake Michigan. With convenient access to the greater Chicago area, you can enjoy big-city amenities, cultural events, and professional sports while returning home to a quieter, more budget-friendly community. Housing options in and around Crown Point range from modern apartments to single-family homes, with a generally more affordable cost of living and housing market compared to many coastal or major urban regions.
In this SLP-CFY role, you will work under the guidance of an experienced, ASHA-certified Speech-Language Pathologist who will provide structured supervision, regular feedback, and mentorship throughout your fellowship. You can expect a diverse caseload that may include pediatric and adult patients, depending on the setting, allowing you to build a broad clinical skill set during your Clinical Fellowship Year. Typical responsibilities include completing speech, language, cognitive-communication, and swallowing evaluations, developing individualized treatment plans, providing direct therapy, documenting in an electronic medical record, and participating in care conferences and family education.
Your typical day may include scheduled evaluations, individual and group therapy sessions, interdisciplinary team collaboration, and time for documentation and planning. Patient volumes and ratios are maintained to support both quality care and learning, with supervision designed to meet and exceed ASHA CFY requirements. You will be encouraged to utilize evidence-based practice, engage in continuing education opportunities, and take an active role in shaping your professional development plan.
The work environment emphasizes teamwork, respect, and ongoing learning. You will have opportunities to collaborate closely with other speech-language pathologists, occupational and physical therapists, nurses, physicians, and educators, depending on the practice setting. Leadership is committed to helping Clinical Fellows grow into confident, independent clinicians, offering clear pathways for progression into fully independent SLP roles after successful completion of the CFY.
This SLP-CFY job in Crown Point, IN, combines meaningful clinical experience, strong mentorship, and an appealing location with community charm, recreational activities, and relatively affordable housing. It is an excellent choice if you are searching for an SLP clinical fellowship job that will help you build your resume, refine your clinical skills, and enjoy life outside of work in a friendly and accessible Midwestern town.
