  • PRC-Saltillo online USA (map)

PRC-Saltillo webinar

“Have you ever considered what the “endgame” is for students who use AAC and when to start working on AAC skills for adult life? It takes years to establish the basic communication skills needed for success in adult life. In this course, we will discuss three communication components: Safety and Self-advocacy, Wellness and Sexuality, Community Engagement and Travel - that are critical for adult life and how to address these in both younger and older students. Strategies and materials will be shared such as conversational scripts, templates for modifying AAC vocabulary files, and low tech identification cards to support the practice of these targeted communication skills. Learn how to support students of all ages who use AAC to Be Safe, Be Well, and Be Engaged.”
