Make room for connection
Children need places where their communication is welcomed and their needs can be expressed comfortably. Begin by listening to what helps your child participate.
Build a circle of support
Families do not have to find every answer alone. Connect with qualified care professionals, trustworthy information, and community programs. Ask questions and share what you notice at home.
Work together at school
Talk with educators about the communication approaches and tools that help your child access learning. Keep the conversation going as needs and situations change.
