We are thrilled to announce a new addition to Autism Digest that we believe will make a significant impact on our readers' lives. Starting this month, every edition of Autism Digest will feature a communication board on the back page, specifically designed for nonspeaking individuals.
These communication boards are not just any tools; they are the result of a collaborative effort between professionals and members of the autistic community. By combining expert knowledge with real-life experiences, we've ensured that these boards are practical, effective, and user-friendly.
What are Communication Boards?
Communication boards are essential tools that facilitate interaction for nonspeaking individuals. They provide a visual and tactile way for users to express their needs, wants, and feelings, making communication more accessible and less frustrating. Whether it's a simple request or a complex thought, these boards offer a bridge to understanding.
Our Commitment to Quality and Inclusivity
We take pride in the development process of these boards. Each board is carefully crafted with input from speech-language pathologists, special educators, and, most importantly, members of the autistic community who use these tools daily. This collaborative approach ensures that the boards are not only theoretically sound but also practically effective in real-world scenarios.
Open for Submissions
We are also excited to announce that we are open to submissions for future communication boards to be featured on our back cover. If you have ideas or designs for communication boards that you believe could benefit our readers, we would love to hear from you. This is a fantastic opportunity to contribute to a resource that will be used by thousands of families and professionals across the globe.
How to Submit
If you have a communication board design or idea, please send your submission to [your email address]. We welcome contributions from all backgrounds, including educators, therapists, parents, and members of the autistic community. Your input can help make a difference!
