You : You may benefit from speech therapy. A speech therapist can teach you how to enunciate your words more clearly and give you exercises to perform to make your more-understandable speech a habit. Call your primary care doctor or insurance company to see if they can recommend a speech therapist near you. Good luck!

See a Laryngologist: You need someone to examine your vocal production and resonance system- your voicebox and throat. Yes, palate abnormalities can contribute to difficulty making yourself understood. You need an expert team with a voice physician and a speech pathologist to work with you. There are some in your state so, please look them up. Best of luck.
