Hello Breakthrough Friends,

HUMP DAY! We are almost in the home stretch! Don't give up now!  Remember WHY you are doing this.  Remember WHO you are doing this for--you got this!

Imagine if we could give the tools to have a meaningful exchange beyond commands and requests. Imagine if we could receive that from our loved ones so often counted out as being uninterested, or preoccupied with something else to give attention to the matter at hand.  It's not just a dream for some. It's never too late!

Today is Part 2 of our discussion with Occupational Therapist, Kelley Howe about communication for non speakers and limited speakers.  As a Spelling to Communicate practitioner, she is going to share some of the amazing results of this work.  

This link will take you to an overview of Spelling to Communicate.

The International Association for Spelling as Communication is also a great place to learn more.

This is a blog post by Ido Kedar. He is a non-speaking autistic individual and he communicates through spelling and typing. He does a great job of explaining brain/body disconnect and how his body limits what he is able to communicate.
