We support individuals and their teams to explore or review communication options, trial different systems, and submit applications for funding of communication equipment. We are skilled in alternative access methods and are experienced with use in all major symbolic AAC systems, as well as Key Word Signing. We have experience working with NDIS, MASS, and MND Associations to obtain funding and equipment.
AAC IMPLEMENTATION
We know that acquiring a communication system is just the beginning of your journey, so we are here to support you and your network to implement your communication system/s across your environments. We can work with you and your team to set up, customise, and connect your AAC tools. We can also work with you directly to build your skills, and work with your team through coaching and training to support them to use AAC with you.
