Twitter seems to be on fire but I'm sharing this disability law reform consultation call for Australia in case anyone out there missed it: 'A New Act to Replace the Disability Services Act (1986)'. Due Dec 20th (an almost impossible deadline you'll agree!) https://t.co/juJNRcVvKg

I’m so grateful to so many people for my Order of Australia. This award is yours too. I now get to advocate for aphasia in different and influential circles. Yesterday it was the Governor of Queensland, an MP & 100 other VIP’s. We should nominate more of us for awards like these.
I agree. And there are clinical tools out there like the Inpatient Functional Communication Interview to help clinicians do this. We just need to shift our lens to what's important to the person....
@mollyxmanning @EithneSexton@Irishheart_ie@nimastStroke Yes, you need to shift the lens, think beyond impairments Molly and help people with #aphasia function and to particpate to maximise their rehab potential at this acute stage.
We are funding and supporting the Communication Access & Inclusion Terminology project. This project aims to find out what the preferred terminology is for referring to people who have communications needs. The project’s survey closes on 30 September 2022. https://t.co/yD2sZ2YDrE
