Our goal is to enhance communication skills in children who utilize Alternative Augmentative Communication (AAC) by increasing their access and social language skills. We have set out to educate graduate students, staff, and community volunteers, to better prepare them to be strong AAC partners. We strive to facilitate children’s peer interactions and expand their language within the program environment, with the ultimate goal being increased language for the child within their home and community. We feel all children have the ability to communicate and aim to help them achieve this goal.
