What is AAC?

Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) includes all the different ways people communicate without spoken words. From picture symbols and communication boards to iPad apps and gestures, AAC helps millions of people express themselves, connect with others, and participate fully in their community.

Myth buster: AAC doesn’t replace speech – it supports communication and understanding.
