Why are specialized services for AAC important?

•  Language and communication are primary to our ability as people to interact with each other and     our world.

•  Some people have limited access to the power of expression and understanding, as well as the tools for developing and maximizing their potential to build relationships and make contributions to their families and communities.

•  Many of them do not have the power to change things on their own… they need help.

•  It is the responsibility of the people that interact with them, their families, friends, staff, and community members to help them find and utilize effective tools to enable expression and understanding.

Finding those tools can feel complicated and overwhelming.  Having the support of a specially trained professional with experience providing evaluations, therapy, and consult services to individuals with complex communication needs, can help maximize communicative effectiveness and efficiency for the client and people in their lives.
