Join us for our monthly support group, part of the Empowered Communication with AAC series, designed to help individuals with aphasia and their caregivers develop the skills and confidence to engage in everyday conversations using AAC tools. This session will provide strategies for initiating and maintaining conversations across common real-world settings like doctor’s visits, grocery shopping, and social interactions. Through role-playing scenarios and caregiver support tips, participants will leave with practical approaches to enhance communication and boost confidence in daily interactions. You do NOT have to be an AAC user to attend this session.

Sessions are hosted through The Lingraphica Community - A place for individuals with various communication challenges and their care partners to connect, share, and offer support. The Lingraphica Community consists of multiple, diagnosis-specific online communities. Each individual community has a separate membership base, live online meetup sessions, and engagement opportunities.

Virtual Connections is a free program from The Lingraphica Community & Aphasia Recovery Connection that offers daily Zoom calls for people with aphasia and caregivers. Virtual Connections is not a speech therapy program, but rather virtual conversation and support groups for people with aphasia and caregivers.

Sessions are hosted by speech pathologists, music therapists, rehab professionals, and aphasia experts. Session topics include travel, hobbies, book clubs, food, holidays, music, and more!

Virtual Connections’ mission is to bring people living with aphasia together from all over the world. We are committed to improving quality of life while eliminating isolation by providing social connection, support, and educational experiences.
