“Will my child ever talk if they use AAC?”

Let’s talk about it! ❤️

This is one of the biggest worries parents have when considering AAC, but here’s the good news: research shows that AAC does NOT prevent speech development. In fact, it may actually SUPPORT spoken language development for some children!

Think of AAC as adding tools to your child’s communication toolbox, not taking anything away!

AAC gives your child a way to communicate right now while their language continues to grow. They can use it to:

✨ Share their feelings and needs
✨ Ask for their favorite snack
✨ Say “NO”
✨ Make choices
✨ Connect with YOU

And guess what? Your child can use AAC AND spoken words, gestures, signs, or any combination that works for them!

We don’t have to choose between supporting communication today and hoping for speech tomorrow. We can do BOTH!

AAC doesn’t take away their voice. It gives them a way to communicate when speaking is still a challenge. Your child deserves a way to communicate right now, not just when speech develops.

📢 Say it louder for the people in the back 📢

❗️AAC is not something you have to wait for your child to be “old enough” to use.

❗️You don’t have to “prove” your child is “ready” for AAC.

❗️You don’t have to trial PECS before trying a speech generating device.

❗️You don’t have to wait until your child is frustrated, falling behind, or no longer making progress with speech to introduce AAC.

There are no prerequisites for communication. Not a certain age, not a specific level of understanding, and not the ability to point to pictures independently.

👏🏻 There 👏🏻 are 👏🏻 no 👏🏻 prerequisites 👏🏻

The earlier we provide access to communication, the more opportunities our children have to learn and participate in their world🌎

You don’t have to be an AAC expert to model AAC.

If you’re a parent who feels hesitant about using your child’s AAC device because you’re worried you’ll press the “wrong” button, do it incorrectly, or simply don’t feel confident — start small.

You don’t need to model everything. You don’t need to create a perfect sentence. And you don’t need to turn every interaction into a therapy session.

👉 Choose ONE motivating word.
👉 Model it repeatedly.
👉 Give your child opportunities to see and hear that word in a meaningful context.

The goal isn’t immediate imitation or a perfect response.

The goal is communication, connection, and showing your child that their AAC device is a powerful tool to express themselves.

So take the pressure off. Pick one thing your child loves or needs throughout the day and start there.

Your child doesn’t need you to be perfect. They just need you to model. You’ve got this!

AAC doesn’t have to be scary! 👻

This October, we’re kicking off AAC Awareness Month by reminding families that AAC is nothing to be afraid of!

Whether it’s a speech-generating device, picture symbols, signing, or another communication system, AAC opens the door to connection and independence.

This month, we’ll be sharing more about AAC, breaking down common misconceptions, and showing how AAC can support meaningful communication in everyday life.

AAC isn’t scary. Not communicating is scary.

🫐narrating our cooking steps
🥞describing using our five senses

Today is World Alzheimer’s Day!

Alzheimer’s disease affects more than memory. As the Alzheimer’s progresses, changes in communication, thinking, and swallowing can also impact a person’s daily life and independence.

Speech therapy can help support individuals with Alzheimer’s and their care partners by addressing:

🗣️ Communication – Developing strategies to help express wants, needs, thoughts, and feelings while maintaining meaningful connections with loved ones, understand questions and directions, maintain functional reading and writing skills, and learn other nonspeaking communication modalities.

🧠 Cognition – Supporting attention, problem-solving, organization, memory strategies, and functional cognitive skills needed for everyday activities.

🍽️ Swallowing – Evaluating and treating swallowing difficulties and providing strategies to promote safer and more comfortable eating and drinking.

Speech therapy isn’t about “fixing” Alzheimer’s. It’s about helping individuals communicate, participate, and maintain quality of life for as long as possible.

Care partners are an important part of the process, too. Therapy can provide education and practical strategies to make communication and daily routines more successful for the whole family.

This World Alzheimer’s Day, let’s remember that speech therapy is another tool that can prolong life participation and connection!
