Proposed changes to the National Health Interview Survey would make it harder for #AACUsers & other #disabled people to take this key survey & be counted: lnk.to/nhis. The #NHIS can’t serve its purpose if it doesn't accurately count us! Comments due to the #CDC 10/19.

October is AAC Awareness Month! The theme for 2026 is AAC in Everyday Life: Today, Tomorrow, and Beyond. ✨🚀
The goal is to raise awareness of AAC and to inform the public about the many different ways in which people communicate using communication devices.
Once again, we are aligning this year’s theme with our upcoming Virtual Conference happening from November 10-11, 2026, where we will explore practical and forward-looking approaches to advancing the field of AAC with inspiring lectures, interactive sessions, and discussions.
💬 Use #AACaware26 to share how YOU are celebrating AAC Awareness Month!
