It also publishes other works that address the interfaces of speech-language pathology and audiology with other educational and health sciences.
History
Revista CEFAC was created in 1999 by Dr. Irene Queiroz Marchesan and Dr. Jaime Luiz Zorzi, the co-directors of CEFAC – Saúde e Educação. The materialization of what was a regularly discussed idea took place during the celebration of the CEFAC’s 15-year existence and was made possible thanks to the tenacity and partnership of individuals who always believed in producing and disseminating new knowledge related to speech therapy.
In 2016, Associação Brasileira de Motricidade Orofacial (ABRAMO) became responsible for publishing Revista CEFAC.
To facilitate the understanding of the journal’s scope by readers and researchers around the world and thus increase its global visibility, in 2023 we began to adopt the acronym Current Evidence on Feeding, Audiology, and Communication - that is, CEFAC.
