Free Parent Mini Course: AAC at Home
Want to better understand AAC and feel more confident supporting your child’s communication at home?
This free parent mini course gives you a simple, practical introduction to Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC)—without overwhelming jargon or pressure to “do it perfectly.”
You’ll receive:
A parent-friendly PowerPoint that walks you through the basics of AAC
A recorded video lesson explaining key AAC concepts and how to use supportive strategies at home
Practical examples of how to model AAC during everyday routines
Tips for giving your child more time to process and respond
Guidance for supporting communication without constant prompting or testing
The AAC Communication Partner Starter Guide, a free 8-page handout with strategies, examples, and a 7-Day Communication Partner Reset
The course focuses on helping families see AAC as communication—not a test. Instead of concentrating on perfect button selections or requiring your child to copy you, you’ll learn how to model language, pause, respond, and create more natural opportunities for communication throughout the day.
You’ll also learn how things like motor planning, sensory needs, language style, interests, relationships, and the environment can affect communication—and why sometimes a child may know exactly what they want to say while still needing more time or support to communicate it.
This mini course is designed for parents and caregivers who are new to AAC, considering AAC for their child, or simply want to become a more confident communication partner.
No perfection required. No complicated therapy assignments.
Just practical strategies you can start using during mealtime, play, transitions, favorite activities, and everyday family life.
Free Mini Course Includes: PowerPoint Training • Recorded Video Lesson • Practical AAC Examples • AAC Communication Partner Starter Guide
Presume competence. Give the body time. Honor the message.
