We specialize in augmentative and alternative communication for a total communication approach!
Meet Bobby! Bobby is a 22-year old young man with Down syndrome. He is social, engaging, and hardworking. Bobby has a complex medical history and as a result, he’s experienced delays and difficulties across development of his speech and language skills. For the past several months, Bobby has been training with use of an alternative and augmentative communication (AAC) device. Bobby has shown strong emerging skills to use his device to supplement when his verbal communication is not sufficient to meet his needs. Recently, Bobby used his AAC device with the help of his mother to voice his opinion and stance at a town meeting. We are so proud of all of Bobby’s hard work! Seeing him use his device in the community to advocate for himself is exactly why we love this field! Way to go, Bobby!
