You asked what to do instead, so here are some examples!

When modeling AAC we want to show someone how they can use their device to communicate.

Using AAC to enforce compliance can create negative associations with the device and discourage someone from using it.

We want to model functional and meaningful language that the AAC user might say themselves. Language that supports their ability to express themselves, make choices, protest, and advocate for THEIR wants and needs.

Disclaimer: AAC modeling should always be individualized to the communicator. These are just examples. The same goes for other supports! A visual timer might be helpful for one child but dysregulating for another. Collaborate with the child’s SLP!

I’ve seen AAC devices used this way, to give directions or reinforce compliance.

I can understand the intention behind wanting to provide visual support, but that’s not the purpose of someone’s AAC device.

Its purpose is to empower someone with communication.

Their AAC device is THEIR voice, not ours.

(And I don’t speak to kids this way in general, but that’s a conversation for another day!)

One of the things that surprises me most as a speech therapist is how often I hear from families that their child wasn’t given access to an AAC device because they “didn’t seem interested” or were told they should wait before getting started.

But how can we expect a child to show interest in something they haven’t had the opportunity to learn? And were different AAC systems trialed to find the right fit?

Learning to communicate using AAC takes access, time, exposure, modeling, and support. If a child isn’t showing interest right away, they might need a different approach, vocabulary, layout, or more time and opportunities to explore.

This is why presuming competence is SO important.

Part of presuming competence is believing in someone’s ability without requiring them to prove it first.

What is AAC?

AAC stands for Augmentative and Alternative Communication, which can be used as an alternative to spoken words or in addition to spoken words.

AAC includes gestures, signs, pictures, communication boards, and speech-generating devices.

There are no prerequisites for AAC... it’s never too early or too late to start! And AAC isn’t only for people who don’t use spoken language. It can support anyone who benefits from another way to communicate.

More AAC info coming this month! Let me know what questions you have or what you’d like to see💬

Perhaps not🤸‍♂️

The best feeling!

This AAC device is from and should be fully covered by insurance.

(Not an ad, I’ve just genuinely had such a great experience working with them to help families get devices covered!)
