Communication Webinar Series: Leveraging AAC for Individuals with Autism

October 9 @ 3:30 pm - 4:30 pm

Click here to register!

Presented by: Julie Muckerman, M.P.H.

Audience: Speech-language pathologists, educators, and early intervention professionals

Session Description:

Think about effective augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) intervention as 20% hardware and 80% follow-through. Once a system or device is chosen, the real work begins for educators, speech-language pathologists, families, and students. Adequate support and training are essential to decrease the chances of device or system abandonment. During this webinar, we’ll explain what AAC is and explore strategies, resources, and supports proven to be effective for successful AAC intervention and outcomes.
