Organizations supporting assisted communication

The work, together.

More than 210 clinics, schools, foundations, coalitions, and allied organizations around the world support assisted communication — FC, RPM, S2C, Spellers Method, and supported typing — for nonspeaking and minimally speaking communicators. Methods differ; the premise is shared: presume competence, and treat communication access as a motor and sensory problem rather than a cognitive one.

Dedicated practice

Clinics and schools dedicated to assisted communication
