AAC in the community starts with moments like this Precious Rodgers ๐Ÿงก

Bailey knew exactly where he wanted to go โ€” The Home Depot โ€” and used his AAC device to say it again and again. Because every button press, every repeated message, and every moment of self-expression is meaningful communication.

To celebrate this sweet moment, we created an exclusive, FREE AAC at Home Depot resource to help families support communication during everyday errands, routines, and community outings.

Because communication belongs everywhere โ€” even in the aisles of Home Depot. ๐Ÿงก

What if the key to better engagement, communication, and connection in early intervention starts with understanding how a child prefers to play? ๐Ÿงธ๐Ÿ’ฌ

โœ”๏ธ Describe the role of play in communication and language development
โœ”๏ธ Identify play styles through object play and social participation
โœ”๏ธ Select materials that align with a child's strengths and interests to support communication goals

Meet Killian ๐Ÿ’™

"Heโ€™s always had so much to sayโ€ฆ
We just needed the right way to hear it." - says his mom, Sarah

"His AAC gives him a way to communicate
To share his wants, his thoughts, and his personality
It helps him connect with the world around him.

AAC didnโ€™t take away his voice
It gave him access to it.

Communication looks different for every child
Every voice deserves to be heard ๐Ÿ’™"

Drop a heart below for Killian!
