AAC Assessments
At Inspire Connections Therapy, we provide a Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) Evaluations so your child can have access to another tool to support communication
Evaluations
We recognize that not all therapists are comfortable with AAC and the waitlists to get into the hospital systems are long. We provide AAC evaluations in our clinic space and follow up with training. Our owner, Lauren, has over 10 years of experiences working with AAC and gaining funding for her clients. Our comprehensive evaluations are designed to find the right fit for your child to support their language learning journey!
Who needs AAC? Everyone can benefit and we start by asking what language or communication skills is your child havining difficulty access? Whether they have limited verbal language, unreliable verbal language, or they are difficult to understand, AAC can help! AAC can:
Provide access to visual language to communicate with the world around them
Provide a tool that can be used in the language journey
Give your child a voice and let them tell the world what they know!
OUR Process
We aim to make our process as seamless as possible to support your family during the evaluation process. We have a few different timelines we can used based on how much support you want to receive.
We help families fund devices through insurance, self pay, or grant money.
Our evals will consist of an initial evaluation to determine the device that will be the best fit for the child. Then we will do a trial period to ensure that we made the best selection and to provide your child with the opportunity to learn and explore.
After the trial period is complete we support the funding process.
You are welcome to join us in our clinic for ongoing support or you can take our report back to your current school or private SLP for ongoing support.
