Communication skills are employment skills!
When people think of speech-language pathology, they often think about speech sounds or early language development. However, communication skills play a critical role in successful employment and independent living.
Young adults may struggle with:
• Interviewing and self-advocacy
• Workplace communication
• Understanding verbal instructions
• Social communication with supervisors and coworkers
• Executive functioning skills such as planning, organization, and task completion
• Using AAC systems effectively in school, work, and community settings
Speech-language pathology services can help individuals build the communication skills needed to pursue employment, post-secondary education, and greater independence.
At Coastal Cognition and Language Center, we provide individualized support for adolescents and young adults with communication, social communication, executive functioning, and AAC needs.
Communication is more than just talking—it is the foundation for participation, opportunity, and independence.
