What is AAC?

Augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) includes tools and strategies that help people communicate when speaking is hard. AAC can be low-tech, like picture boards or gestures, or high-tech, like devices that talk for the user. AAC helps children share their wants, needs, thoughts, and feelings and does not stop them from learning to talk.

AAC Empowerment:

Voices at Home: Empowering Caregivers with AAC Tools is a platform aimed at training caregivers and families on using AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication) in the home environment with their children. The site features various types of AAC, guidance on implementation at home, research-based practices to assist families, and helpful resources. Additionally, it offers a community forum to foster connection and support among caregivers.
