What is AAC?
AAC, or Augmentative and Alternative Communication, refers to a variety of methods, tools, and strategies used to support or replace speech for individuals with communication challenges. AAC can be an essential resource for people with conditions such as neurodegenerative diseases, developmental disabilities, or injuries that impact their ability to speak.
Types of AAC
AAC encompasses a wide range of options, including:
Unaided Communication: This involves non-verbal communication methods like gestures, facial expressions, and sign language.
Aided Communication: This includes the use of external tools, which can be simple (e.g., picture boards) or complex (e.g., speech-generating devices or computer software).
Who can benefit from AAC?
AAC is designed for anyone who has difficulty with speech or language, whether temporarily or permanently. It provides a way to communicate more effectively, maintain social connections, and express thoughts and emotions.
