What do you think of when you think of functional communication?⁣

Image description: Bitmoji of white woman with brown hair smiling at bottom left.
Text reads: quote/unquote functional communication
Under large red X to indicate functional communication is not:
Primarily requesting (i.e., asking for things)
Limited to topics related to physical needs and activities of daily living
Disproportionate emphasis on toileting, bathroom
Limited language that is selected by someone other than the communicator
Under large green check mark to indicate functional communication is:
Expressing your opinions and preferences
Requesting what you want/need
Protesting undesired actions, events, items
Disagreeing, complaining, arguing negotiating, telling people off
Asking questions to get information about your life and topics that interest you.
Talking about personal experiences and the world around you
Self-advocating and making decisions related to your own life
Using language to regulate yourself and your environment, as well as to direct others
Establishing and growing relationships with others
LITERACY! The ability to read and write allows complete communication autonomy.
It's any communication skills and/or strategies that allow you to "function" in the life YOU want to live!
