Presenter: Emily Diaz, M.S; CCC-SLP
Description: This presentation will familiarize SLPs with the basics of gestalt language processing while also considering the role that AAC plays for these individuals. We will also consider how to coach and support AAC stakeholders to build healthy habits so they can confidently implement AAC beyond the therapy session and integrate strategies into the classroom curriculum. This session will also address cultural and linguistic aspects of learning differences, provide ideas for adaptations to accommodate specific disabilities as well as meet student needs in inclusive settings.
This session will satisfy the DEI requirements for the maintenance of ASHA certification.
