October is International AAC Awareness Month!

Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) is a set of tools and strategies that people with speech-related disabilities use every day. AAC can include symbols, sign language, facial expressions, speech-generating devices, and more!

International AAC Awareness Month was established by ISAAC International almost 20 years ago to raise awareness of AAC and share the many ways people communicate using different devices.

Did you know that October is Health Literacy Month?

Health literacy is the ability to access, understand, and use health information to make informed decisions that positively impact your health and the health of your loved ones. For many people, especially older adults or those living with dementia or Alzheimer’s disease, this can be challenging.

Check out the Tools for Life Health Literacy Toolkit at https://b.gatech.edu/3WcDzNH to share information and raise awareness of health literacy. If you'd like to learn more, contact our team!
