About the Event
This 2-hour, introductory course will provide an evidence-based, intervention framework to help AAC professionals and caregivers best support complex communicators from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. As a participant in this course, you will explore how to identify communication needs for bilingual, Spanish-English learners, adding culturally responsive practices to your EBP, AAC toolbox. You will also learn how to implement Spanish/English AAC intervention plans based on emergent bilingual language development research. This course further aims to entice you to consider the sociocultural frameworks that aim to sensitively and effectively support the Spanish-speaking household, and to encourage families to use AAC in their native language to foster language development for ongoing, academic success.
