What is augmentative and alternative communication?

• After a brain injury or stroke, how you use verbal language can be affected to different degrees.

• If you experience significant difficulty expressing yourself verbally, communication devices can be an excellent tool to allow you to communicate with others.

• Communication devices come in a range of forms from low-tech options, such as a piece of paper with icons on it, to high-tech options, such as a tablet that produces speech.

• Communication devices are not used to replace verbal communication, but rather, to support it. We are dedicated to giving you the tools you need to express yourself.
