March is Women’s History Month, a time to celebrate the strength, resilience, and impact of women everywhere. 💜

At Adler Aphasia Center, we’re proud to be surrounded by incredible women — members, caregivers, clinicians, volunteers, and advocates — who support one another and inspire our community every day.

Today and every day, we celebrate the women whose voices, leadership, and compassion help make Adler the special place it is.

Aphasia changes family life in ways many people don’t see.

In this story, Kristine shares how learning supportive communication at Adler helped her better connect with her father — and how the community helped him become less hard on himself when words were difficult.

Just as important, Adler gave caregivers something they often need most: space to recharge.

When individuals with aphasia find connection and community, families grow stronger too.

Amanda first learned about Adler in graduate school — and it felt like a dream job. 💙

What she believes most?
Therapy doesn’t have to be one-on-one. It can be conversation groups. Community. Real, adult conversations about loss, growth, and resilience.

And the most important ingredient? Patience.

Slow down. Give space. Let the connection happen.

Brain Injury Awareness Month reminds us that recovery isn’t just medical — it’s personal.

Behind every diagnosis is a person with thoughts, intelligence, humor, and heart. Many of our members are stroke and brain injury survivors living with aphasia, working every day to reconnect with life.

We see their resilience. We honor their journeys. And we walk alongside them. 💙

In Transcortical Aphasia, language challenges may resemble Broca’s or Wernicke’s Aphasia — but repetition is preserved.

There are two types:
• Transcortical Motor (difficulty initiating speech)
• Transcortical Sensory (difficulty understanding language)

Recognizing these differences matters. It allows for more thoughtful, individualized communication support.

Therapy sessions are limited. Life with aphasia isn’t.

Caryn explains why she often tells families to visit Adler — not because they have to, but because they deserve to see what community can look like.

Again and again, families report the same thing: relief.

Adler will be closed Tuesday, February 24th.

Although the storm is over, the weather has made travel difficult for some. Stay safe, everyone!
