Our family attended an AAC camp in Ontario that changed our whole mindset.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Hannah was 5 yrs old and we fundraised like heck for 2 weeks to get us all there. It was an incredible feeling to be around others who were like-minded with NO pressure to have all our questions prewritten while listening and taking notes at the same time. We wanted to bring the same experience to more families. It is imperative to keep camp accessible, comfortable, and intimate for everyone to breathe and be themselves. You are NOT a number at camp!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Let's Build Community!
Bring the WHOLE family! Consider inviting your school team, respite workers, and home support - imagine an entire school team on the same page with parents!

Hannah's Hope AAC Camp is about building and strengthening community for families supporting a child with complex communication needs.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A parent’s journey supporting their child can be overwhelming and lonely. During the weekend families will have time to connect with each other and troubleshoot their challenges. Families can expect to walk away feeling more confident in supporting their child’s communication and language development.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This is a child and family-centred camp; as professionals, we benefit from interacting, observing, and learning from those that know the child best - the parents. Over the 3 days at camp, professionals (OT, PT, SLP, EA, educators) have the opportunity to participate in wide-ranging, targeted problem-solving and collaboration with expert clinicians and school team leaders.
