H-PCAP strives to enhance the life participation of its members who are affected by aphasia by:
• Improving communication skills
• Providing access to information in aphasia-friendly formats
• Supporting caregivers
• Spreading community awareness of aphasia
• Reaching out to those with aphasia, reducing isolation and depression. With communication groups in Burlington, Brampton, Mississauga, Oakville, and Milton. Please contact our team for more information at 905-875-8474.

📖 Aphasia Research Spotlight!

Can group conversation treatment for aphasia work online? 🤔
A recent study explored just that — comparing telepractice with in-person therapy.

✨ Findings:
- Both in-person and telepractice conversation groups improved communication outcomes compared to no treatment.
- In-person groups showed slightly broader gains, but telepractice still proved to be a meaningful and accessible option.

This research highlights the potential of virtual therapy to support people with aphasia, especially when in-person services aren’t possible.
