October is AAC Awareness Month, and at ATLAS, we’re celebrating the power of communication! 🗣️✨

What is AAC?
Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) includes any tool, system, or strategy used to express thoughts, needs, and ideas when traditional speech isn’t enough. AAC isn't a "one-size-fits-all" solution—it is completely customized to the unique needs of each learner.

How is AAC utilized?
AAC spans a wide spectrum of tools that we actively integrate into our daily ABA sessions:

No-Tech: Meaningful gestures, facial expressions, and body language.

Low-Tech: Communication boards, picture exchange systems (like PECS), and visual schedules.

High-Tech: Dedicated speech-generating devices, iPad communication apps (like Proloquo2Go or TouchChat), and eye-gaze systems.

Who is AAC for?
AAC is for anyone whose spoken language is limited, developing, or unreliable. In our clinic, we use AAC to empower autistic individuals and children with various developmental or speech delays.

The Golden Rule: AAC supports verbal speech!

A common misconception is that introducing a device will stop a child from speaking. Research consistently proves the opposite—AAC reduces frustration, builds language comprehension, and often acts as a bridge that accelerates natural speech development.

What is Prompting?

In ABA, prompting refers to providing assistance or cues to help a child successfully complete a skill or response. Prompts are used to support learning and build independence by guiding children toward the correct behavior while reducing errors and frustration.
Prompts can be verbal, visual, gestural, modeled, or physical. As children become more successful, prompts are gradually faded so they can perform skills independently.

Real-Life Examples:

Verbal Prompt:
A child is learning to greet others. An adult says, “Say hi,” to help them respond appropriately.

Gestural Prompt:
A child is asked to put away a toy, and the adult points to the toy bin to guide them.

Model Prompt:
An adult demonstrates how to wash hands, and the child imitates the actions.

Visual Prompt:
A child uses a visual schedule to follow their daily routine and transition between activities.

Prompting is an important teaching tool that helps children learn new skills, build confidence, and experience success. By using prompts effectively and gradually fading support, we help children become more independent across home, school, and community settings.
