Augmentative Communication and Empowerment Supports (ACES)

SUPPORT ACES


Support ACES and its effort to give a voice to all people who communicate using speech generating devices.

Kathleen Curcio using an AAC device in classroom

"Before ACES my life was not meaningful. I knew I had a voice, but I didn't know how strong my voice was.

After ACES I had the power and knowledge to do whatever I needed to do."

ACES 2006 Graduate
