One of our amazing patients brought in some delicious Diwali treats this week! 🌟 We’ve been working on word finding using personally meaningful words and topics, and this celebration was the perfect way to connect language, culture, and communication.
It was so kind of him to share his traditions and light up our day!

This AAC Awareness Month, let's shift the conversation.
AAC users aren't just communicators - they're gamers, artists, historians, comedians, activists, scientists, and so much more.
When we presume competence and actually LISTEN, we learn that AAC users have valuable perspectives on everything from pop culture to politics to physics.

Fun fact!! Most people think Stephen Hawking used eye gaze as his way to access his computer, however, he used something called “Switch control” which initially he used with his hand and then later switched to an infrared switch on his cheek.
