Discover what’s possible when communication is properly aided.

Are you the parent of an autistic child with an Augmentative and Alternative Communication device? Or maybe you’re just curious about how AAC devices can help? If either applies to you, you’ll want to listen to this conversation with Vidya Banerjee, an autism mother and the creator of the Autism Family Story blog and podcast.

Today’s conversation was originally released on August 4, 2022. We discuss:

• Do’s, don’ts, and common misconceptions about AAC devices
• The Landau Kleffner syndrome, a rare childhood neurological disorder affecting Vidya’s son which causes loss of speech
• Vidya’s mission as a blogger and podcaster
• What she hopes for her son’s future
• Tips for parents of non-speaking autistic children
