AAC TEAM
Augmentative and Alternative Communication
A STRONG VOICE
Every child deserves to have a voice! Our nationally recognized Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) program offers comprehensive evaluations and support for children with complex communication needs. Children who have difficulty producing speech that others can easily understand may benefit from AAC.
A STRONG VOICE
“AAC is more than just choosing a system or device. It is a collaborative effort to support children and their families in their search for a voice. We are priviledged to be part of that journey.”
-Lynsey Phillips, M.S. CCC-SLP, AAC Program Director
