Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) evaluations are critical for individuals who face challenges with verbal speech. Our practice provides thorough AAC assessments to identify the most effective communication solutions tailored to each person's unique needs. We explore a range of AAC options, from low-tech strategies like picture boards to high-tech devices like speech-generating tablets. Our goal is to empower our clients by enhancing their ability to communicate effectively in their daily lives, ensuring they have the tools to express themselves and engage with the world around them.

Programming Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) devices is a crucial step in ensuring that these tools are personalized to meet the specific communication needs of our clients. Our approach involves configuring AAC devices with appropriate vocabulary sets, customizing access methods to suit individual motor abilities, and integrating personal preferences and interests. By meticulously setting up these devices, we help individuals maximize their communication potential, facilitating easier and more effective interactions in their everyday environments. Our dedicated therapists provide ongoing support and adjustments to evolve with our clients' changing needs and abilities.

Our AAC consultation services are designed to guide families, educators, and other professionals in understanding and effectively utilizing Augmentative and Alternative Communication systems. Through detailed consultations, we assess the communicative needs and capabilities of the individual and provide recommendations on the most suitable AAC options. We offer training sessions to ensure that caregivers and support teams are proficient in using the AAC devices and strategies, empowering them to support the individual’s communication in diverse settings. Our goal is to foster an environment where every voice is heard and can thrive, enhancing communication and participation for those we serve.
