RCSLT and the AAC Leads Network have completed a project to measure the impact of the AAC legislation enacted in March 2018. There is 2 different reports one from the Speech and Language Therapist perspective and one from the AAC user perspectives. Although the survey had some positive results, there is still a lot to do to There are some lively animations to accompany the reports. Click here to see the reports and animations
The What Matters to You campaign has now gone global. The new website wmty.world has just been launched. It has some great resources on having WMTY conversations. This global movement has spread to over 49 countries. Anyone interested in Patient Engagement and Participation should have a look.
It is with great sadness that we learned of the passing of Mr. Bruce Baker, founder of Minspeak. Bruce was an inspiration to us all in the AAC world. Our deepest sympathies to his family and friends.
