At Adler, communication takes many forms. Even when words are few, conversations still flow with warmth, humor, and understanding.

Here, Hannah and Javed remind us that it’s not about how much you say, but about being heard, understood, and included. 💬💙

September is World Alzheimer’s Month, a time to raise awareness and reduce stigma around Alzheimer’s and other dementias. 💜

While aphasia is not a form of dementia, we know the challenges of language and memory disorders impact not only the individual, but also their families and caregivers. This month, we stand in solidarity with the Alzheimer’s community, honoring their resilience and advocating for greater understanding and support.

Together, we can create a world where no one feels alone on this journey. 💙

Nicole Salzano’s journey is one of courage, resilience, and advocacy. From a life-changing stroke in her early 20s to becoming a passionate voice for aphasia awareness, she shows what it means to turn challenges into purpose.

Nicole is a beloved part of our Adler family, and her advocacy helps ensure more people understand aphasia and the importance of community support. 💙

🎉 Celebrating 22 Years! 🎉

On August 26, 2003, Elaine and Mike Adler opened the doors to our first Center in Maywood, NJ, welcoming just four people with aphasia and four caregivers.

22 years later, their vision has flourished into three full-service Centers, community-based communication groups, and virtual programs reaching people across New Jersey and beyond.

Their legacy lives on in every conversation, every connection, and every courageous step forward. 💙

🎨 Many Adler members picked up a paintbrush for the first time *after* aphasia, and discovered a whole new way to express themselves.

Our art classes aren’t just about creativity, they’re about confidence, communication, and finding joy in the process.

Spreading awareness, one conversation at a time. 💙
In A Million Little Thoughts Episode 19, Adler members share how they celebrated Aphasia Awareness Month—from handing out brochures and wearing Adler shirts in the community, to posting on social media and talking with neighbors and doctors.

Because awareness doesn’t stop in June, it’s something we carry forward every day.
