Well done Sea to Sky Virtual Aphasia Camp Zoom campers, SLP students, Therapeutic Rec students, clinical leads and committee! The camp weekend was a great success!
Gabby Giffords has #aphasia following a brain injury. Her message here makes clear reference to her aphasia & experience. It's very powerful to hear the word aphasia used in such a high profile context. I hope it raises further awareness & understanding. Thank you @GabbyGiffords.
