In this dynamic 2-hour webinar, you’ll gain an understanding of what it truly means to partner with families and enhance multimodal communication outcomes. Join Kylie, and Jenna, as they offer a rare and invaluable dual perspective—Kylie brings her lived experience as a parent of an AAC user, while Jenna shares her experience as a clinician who has supported them along the way.

With over 8 years of collaborative experience, and through Talk My Talk training programs, Kylie and Jenna have supported families through every phase of AAC use—from the initial stages to navigating the school environment and building broader community support systems. This partnership has equipped them with powerful insights and strategies that will help you navigate the complexities of working with families and enhance the communication experiences of AAC users. 

In this insightful session, we’ll explore the essential aspects of AAC practice, focusing on family-centred approaches, multimodality, and strategies for building strong collaborations.
