AAC Connection helps families and professionals practically integrate Augmentative & Alternative Communication (AAC) through training, individualized programming and team support.  
​We know full well the challenges inherent in trying to navigate these somewhat unchartered waters for many families and caregivers, and we are here to help guide you through this process.
​Funds raised will be used to:
  • Provide high tech tools to children and adults so they can connect with the world around them.
  • Provide training to families and professionals  to support people using AAC .

Some highlights from the Development & Peer Collaboration Series:
​​

​Augmentative and alternative communication is used everyday by everyone. AAC systems are used by struggling communicators in our oral world.  Everyone has the right to communicate.

AAC = Alternative & Augmentative Communication

Maybe we should ask, what it isn't?!

Core Language

​Core language are the words we use everyday to get us through the day. 

Modeling

Modeling is also known as aided language stimulation (ALS).  Put simply you have to model words in order for a child to use the words - think of it like learning a new language.
It was wonderful to hear information not only from well respected providers but also from a parent whose child actually uses AAC.
