Giving your child a communication device to support them if they need it does NOT mean you are giving up on speech. Actually, research says the opposite.
A lot of parents worry that using an AAC device will make their child stop trying to talk. But study after study shows that is not true. AAC does not stop speech — it actually helps it. When kids have a reliable way to communicate, they feel less frustrated. That calmer state often helps them start using more words on their own. AAC gives kids a voice right now, while speech keeps growing.
Wondering if your child might benefit from AAC? Call us to schedule a speech-language evaluation. We do full AAC assessments and support the whole family.
