In May we welcomed Paige to the Windsor Speech Co. team. Paige comes from an education background and has found a passion for total communication. Paige has completed her Master's coursework in speech pathology and is currently working on her thesis about AAC and parent engagement (HOW PERFECT!?). We snapped this picture yesterday before we left to present her very first customized AAC device to a client.. and was it ever a hit! Moments like these are what makes it all worth it! Welcome, Paige!

Wishing Dr. Gragg a wonderful retirement!

Thank you for everything you have done for the community over your decades of service to the Windsor community. 15 years ago I was an undergraduate student of yours walking into the Summit Centre for the very first time. You were my first introduction to autism and you (along with the Summit Centre staff) were the first people who thought perhaps speech therapy would be a good fit for me… Boy were you ever right!!!

So thank you, Dr. Gragg, you have impacted more lives than you will ever know.

-Natalia

Celebrating a legacy of service- Happy Retirement!

Today, we honor Dr. Marcia Gragg for her incredible 22 years at The Summit Centre for Preschool Children with Autism. Your dedication to autism research and support has transformed countless lives and strengthened our community. Thank you for helping families find acceptance and hope. We wish you all the best in this new chapter of your life! 🎉💙

Join us in celebrating this remarkable journey and share your favorite memories!

…And that’s a wrap on autism month!

This month was mostly spent programming and coaching families on the start of their AAC journeys! I had so much fun with this last one as this friend shares my love for heavy metal music. It is such a privilege to help give nonspeakers and minimal speakers a voice.

And that's a wrap!

What a year it has been!!! We welcomed 3 full-time staff members and our family grew again in August with the arrival of Madi's son, Antonio. A huge thank you to Madi, Nik, and Jordan - your passion for the families you work with inspires me daily. Thank you to the wonderful families we have been able to support this year. And at last, thank you to our amazing community partners.. I have really enjoyed forming new connections and friendships this year.

A reminder to our families that we are now closed and will resume services on January 2nd. Voicemails/emails will not be monitored over the break (okay, maybe once or twice!).

Have a safe and happy holidays and new year.
