This session provides an introductory overview of Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC). It defines the spectrum of communication tools ranging from no-tech and low-tech options to sophisticated high-tech speech-generating devices. It debunks common myths regarding AAC and emphasizes that these tools support, rather than hinder, natural speech development. Ultimately, this presentation highlights that successful AAC implementation requires consistent, customized support across all environments to ensure every individual finds their voice.
