SLP 🦹🏻♀️ advocating for inclusive practice to make our learning and working community a diverse group of all types of communicators🌈 opinions are my own
Thanks @RepWexton for your historic speech on the House floor recognizing Disability Pride Month that demonstrated the benefits of Augmentative and Alternative Communication.
You gave voice to the many people who communicate differently but whose words need to be heard.
@RepWexton Thank you for demonstrating the positive impact of #AAC when championing #DisabilityPrideMonth. Proudly representing Virginia, my neighbors in the 10th District, and all Americans who communicate using #AT 🇺🇸🫶🏼
I spoke on the House floor today to mark Disability Pride month.
I hope I can be a voice—even an AI voice—for Americans facing accessibility challenges & other disabilities.
Too often people only see us for that disability, & in truth we are so much more
.@RepWexton@MarkWarner@TimKaine People with disabilities use Medicaid services to support them in their daily lives. Complicated work rules and cuts to Medicaid would mean millions of people lose critical services. Keep Medicaid OUT of debt ceiling negotiations. #SaveMedicaid
This #StarWarsDay, consider how tapping into the popular franchise might encourage early adoption of #AAC. The character Grogu (aka #BabyYoda) who in @themandalorian uses a machine fitted with a form of AAC to communicate. #slpeeps#slp2b@NSSLHA https://t.co/T80Jol6YQn
No student should face discrimination because of who they are.
At ED, @EDcivilrights works to ensure ALL students have access to an education free from discrimination & harassment based on sexual orientation & gender identity: https://t.co/JLwL2vS2qP #TransDayOfVisibility
@TheAuthorGuy Bought this almost 20 years ago in a Borders. Read it during Lent every year. Kashmir and Biff are coming up soon. Kama sutra for dummies 🤣
