Not if, but how... our AAC success story
My son received his AAC just about a year ago. It is hard to imagine our life with out it now. Wyatt took to his "talker" immediately. He quickly learned how to ask for his needs and wants, and we were thrilled. Our non verbal, visually impaired son, living with autism finally had a voice.
"Overall excellent presentation - extremely valuable and informative. Thank you!! I will recommend this training to my colleagues."
